Two Roads Diverged in the... Well anyways. There should be a bad joke here. No, joke, but there was a wooden spoon left in the middle of the road. "Well, I suppose we could apply several theories regarding the statistical ventures however I am afraid I would require far more data to even come remotely close. As such I concur with the general idea of following the local goblinoid as they would most likely have the best knowledge out of the group of six to select the proper path yielding maximum benefit. Although, one could counter with the analysis of the super-intent dogma and suggest that, the proper path would only yield the maximum benefit for only one of any given number, due to the arithmetic proving itself to have some strong correlation when plotted. Thus I would suggest following the goblinoid with the most cautious advance as possible as I believe given her knowledge of the area, it would fall upon her to be the beneficed of this chosen path." R'lyeh began a pseudo-lecture on the art of S'Augwin statistics. "Given this, and her eagerness to find rewards for her endevors, let alone her name, perhaps it would be the best course to let her take the lead? If you would pardon my slightly warranted paranoia?" "As for using fire, I suppose, although the fire would increase the rate of dehydration for me and as such I would elect not to carry such elements near my person. Oh, and my name is 'R'Lyeh' in my people's language it means 'great light' and I have become accustomed to calling the blue kobold 'Wasskal' which literally translates to 'water scale,' although the long form would be 'one who bears the scales of the deep blue waters.' It is a more honorable title than 'kapskal' or 'kelp scale' referring to anyone with red-brown-orange scales. Although perhaps should he prove himself quite able to join us in the seas, he would earn the name 'Skynskal' meaning 'one who bears the scales of the kin.' the highest honor we S'Augwin hold to the kobold races to mark them as our accepted brethren..." And at which point, R'lyeh, or Riley as they called him, decided to keep quiet about the jars of undead viscera he had harvested from the undead goblins...
