Val'Malus heads to the tent without a word

Borloth immediately follows Regema, trying to be even more on alert than he was before now that things are finally about to get fun, or so he hopes.

Madoc, too, enters the tent, relieved to be out of the open and moderately harder to observe.

Regema begins to speak once everyone is in the tent and there is nobody obviously listening in on their conversation. "Alright, then. Lets do a little accounting... We don't want to be rude to our hosts, so once our privacy is assured," Regema turns and nods at Borloth at this comment, "let's start talking about how many slaves we can round up right now."

Borloth nods and exits the tent, making sure that nobody is snooping.

"It may not be that simple. Some of the slaves have military training, and we're outnumbered enough as it is. The untrained slaves would be easy enough to take, though a few might run, but if we start there, we lose surprise, and that's one of our very few advantages."

"Hmm... you're right. Maybe we can use those slaves. If a 'villager' were to sneak some weapons in to the slaves, no doubt many of the slaves and the guards would be killed in the resulting fight. Madoc, tell them that we're prepared to buy and haggle over price with them. Afterwards, we're going to have to return to the village to get our money from the Inn's lockbox."

What if we tried trading a villager for a slave? The villager would be concealing weapons.

"These people don't buy slaves if they can help it. They take them." Madoc looks up, then walks towards the tent door. "I'll haggle. We might even get a good price. Thirty-five a head!" he snorts derisively.

The orc glances at Madoc as he steps out of the tent. So, how many do you need to purchase?

"Well, I've got some big orders, and there are always more trees to fell. I'm thinking perhaps two dozen, though there's no way I can buy that many at thirty-five a head. What say yu to twenty for the unskilled?"

"Ridiculous. At thirty three, I may as well just hire help. It'd be years before the costs caught up. Twenty-five."

Hrmm... perhaps you have a point, perhaps not. 29 sounds good to me.

He looks at Madoc for a moment, tapping his fingers to one of his tusks. Done. You may pick them now, or come back tomorrow if you need to acquire transport. If you leave them overnight, we'll charge you for that, 1 gold a head. Now, half the gold, if you please.
