"That is the exact opposite of diplomacy, Parra," Sumina points out. "Diplomacy is just another form of dominance, just more... challenging." Parra argue, relativly respectfully- as she the very least her crew.

Arthogate "Aye, diplomacy tests your charisma, wisdom and intellect. The charm to speak kindly, the intelligence to know what to say and the wisdom to say things that won't offend your audience. Or something like that."

*Granker shrugged he knew he struggled with diplomacy he tended to upset people*

"I will leave it to the judgment of your group on how best to persuade the golden minotaur to come with you," Lord Rethoth says. "I have here a map to the ogre village for you to use." He nods and one of the minotaurs at a desk hands over a rolled up parchment to the party.

Kaelestia takes the map from the minotaur and starts to study it. *
"Parra, you are not wrong about diplomacy... But that is exactly why we should consider our actions carefully when we are there. I would prefer not resorting to violence... Especially since we will be in a village full of ogres." - she then turns toward Rethoth, and asks. - "Is there anything else we need to know before we leave, Lord Rethoth?"
OOC
*how far is this village from where we are, according to the map?

"No, I trust you are capable enough to handle any unforeseen obstacles on your own," Lord Rethoth replies.
=============
(OOC: To be honest, it's hard to say. The module actually does provide a map, but it's so blurry to be nearly indecipherable, but from what I can tell...maybe around 20 miles to reach the mountains?)

Sha'al checks with the others to be sure they have a majority (seems we do). He checks the maps and nods. The charts appear in order. I think we can accept this test-job, in light of the situation. You have yourself a crew.

Kaelestia seemed to knew how to apporach Parra- maybe it was the respect Kaelestia expressed,or the power she has wielded.
"Fine." She agree with an "oomph'
It was true- she wasnt powerful enough to terrorize a village full of ogres "I am ready, as far one can be ready"

Sumia didn't argue the point mostly because she didn't see any reason to. Parra wasn't wrong, but she was assuming this was supposed to be handled in a more peaceful way. "I'm ready whenever everyone else is ready."

Kaelestia smiles softly at Parra, she grew to like the grumpy minotaur. - "I am also ready."

"I look forward to hearing of your success," Lord Rethoth says.
The party then departs, leaving the manor and making their way out of the city, to the eastern gates. They get quite a few glares and sneers from locals on the way.
==============
(OOC: This is the last marching order I got from the party (including their current movement rates):
Granker (12) and Arthogate (6) Sha'al (8) and Sumina (6) Kaelestia (8), Ferd (12), Krenari (15) Parra (8)
Is this acceptable or did anyone want to make any changes?)

it's fine by me as well. I'm also noticing that I have 2 bedrolls? One on me and one on Ferd, I think it's a typo..? So just delete the one on me.

Kaelestia's jaguar companion. She acquired her after our adventure with the kenders, so the cat had been with us for a while now (I think a month in character at least)
