Sylvia couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the guards. She decided to approach the kobold first and talk to the little guy first. Hopefully she can get more of an idea as to what kind of...person this kobold is. 

Soon enough she was standing in front of his cage. She noticed that he was having a hard time looking at her, but also wanted to keep some distance from her. So she settled for resting on one knee in order to talk with the kobold, eye to eye without the sun blinding him. She answered him, "No, I'm not here to talk about the stealing. I know you didn't do it," 

She then continued, "Shortfang...that's your name, correct?" She then asked the kobold, "How do you feel about traveling with a caravan in return for being freed from this prison?"
