Len turns toward Goradh. "This is most certainly taking way too much time. I'll keep an eye on him if you want to return to our post. I'll take him to one of the bunkhouses and see if I can determine if anything else is going on here." Len turns toward one of the guards blocking the creature's path. "If you could bring us whatever is a step above the scraps we feed to the hounds I'd appreciate it." Len turns toward the creature. "Now you're going to follow me and cooperate and if you do then there will be nothing to worry about. I'll try to make it as comfortable as I can for you but know this; the second you try to run, or pull anything shifty, I [b]Will Not Hesitate[/b] to break you where you stand. If you are telling the truth then there's no reason why you would need to suddenly escape my presence, so I will take your hypothetical flight as proof that you are lying. " Len motions for the guard with the shackles to hand them over to him. "Don't make me need to use these creature." Len turns back toward Goradh. "If this works for you then we shall part ways for a brief moment. Please send for me at a moments notice and I will return as swift as the wind." Len addresses the whole room. "Any objections?"
