Dragon Quest III [ME6]

A old abandoned inn, a monument of sorts to what the Slags used to be.

Illi, having helped as much as she could, gives a curtsy.

(Assuming it's okay to skip ahead then? If not I can hold off on this part.)

Cyprian wouldn't have much to say until they were well out of the abyss and a ways away from the Darkhouse Inn. Only then would he turn to the others and say,

"Well! I suppose we have three options then: Kill, bang, or marry! Thoughts?"

Reckon y'find 'im somethin' suit'ble, or bring someone as values their skin less'n I do t'throw down with a Nalfeshnee on 'is own ground..."

Akh remained introspected for a while after they had left.

"...Given the way that conversation went, I suppose the only viable solution is to offer the nalfeshnee a suitable item. I might have something they could accept." She looked at Cyprian, indicating what item she had in mind. "But I have no confidence in myself to negotiate a good bargain with it, my fluency in Infernal notwithstanding. Experiencing mistreatment of death firsthand on such a massive scale is too much for me to bear and keep whatever wits of mine about. I will definitely need help."

That confession of inadequacy wasn't painful to make for she was rather devoid of pride, but it didn't settle well with her nonetheless, awakening old fears. It reminded her of her bad track record in dealing with malevolent creatures. "The priority would be to get the whole skeleton out, not just the skull, and as many of the other corpses if able."

"Alright, marry it is then." Cyprian nodded. "Then shall we talk to your guildmaster for guidance? Perhaps there are trinkets we can trade in the dustmen vaults, or maybe he can give us a stipend to utilize in the procurement of others?" Cyprian scratched his head. "We could offer up the wand as his 'lynchpin' replacement. Then everything else could be middling in quality. From there it'll be the salesmen's job to get the most bang for our buck."

"We got out alive. This time. Not sure I'd trust m'silver tongue to get a much better deal. Demons is demons, an' I never yet met a Tanar'ri patient 'nough t'put up with too much dickering outta mortals. An' he damn sure ain't givin' up 'is entire dec'rative plan, so don't go pushin' too hard on gettin' more bodies out."

"The bargaining chip I am about to offer will add a whole new dimension to his decorative plan." Akh mused. "I don't know if my position within the Dustmen is strong enough to hold a meeting with my Factol. But we can learn that tomorrow. On that, however, I must talk with you about an issue in private."

"Ahh, I see. Okay then," he thinks to himself, nervously looking at the assembled. "One more dive in and we'll close our business together. Thank you all for your help." Cyprian bows to them all.
