Exactly. The YET is there, they won't say it, but we know how it is. They threw us in the crater. They'll use us.
I might as well take the money, to be honest. It's already out there. I don't think giving them better armor/clothes is that big of a deal. I won't make them any weapons.
Maybe we can take hostage the portal makers? Or we can pay them. We have plenty of money. I know that there was a portal maker in Thorne who got people to the Free Cities, so there must be one out of here elsewhere. The problem is where to GO. We're not going to Thorne. I think Nocwich and Nether would just send us back, they'd have to, so Solvunn might be the only option.
We need to get back to finding out more beyond the borders. Those are not options we want to work with. We'll hope that the corecloth holds them off for now and work on our plans.
Are you sure you're okay with this? There could be other options.
If we had enough of us, they might. It would be basically signing up for their army though, because it's the only way I could see they would take us on.
You know, that is a sentence I think I'll always have trouble with. But at least you don't side with the others. I've gotten better, not that much better.
Is there a way of giving them something like your corecloth but not exactly?
The dragons and Fey wouldn't make us fight for them. Too bad we can't go there.
I think the corecloth is the lesser of evils here, they have to know that I can make very dangerous things if I wanted to. Armor seems like the most harmless option.
It's only a matter of time. I suspect if enough have talked about that future time, if they know about it, they'll make a move before we get that powerful.
No one has talked as far as I know. Crane, maybe, that fucker is always so slippery, but I don't know for sure. Everyone else is trustworthy. Although a part of me did want to yell WHEN I'M A GOD YOU'LL BE SORRY at the people arresting me.
Trust me. I've wanted to say the same... even if I have evaded being arrested by whole time here. So thankful for you to be the one to take those hits for us.

He's quiet for a long moment. ]
They aren't forcing you yet. Let's both be honest about that.
If you don't take the pay, we both know what they'll do.
What do you want to do, Jesper?
[ Asking first before making demands or showing how much frustration he feels. Not at Jesper, but from fear of what they'll do to him. ]

Also don't think I didn't notice how you held onto that information until you judged how angry I am.
I suppose I've trained you well.

YUCK.

There aren't. They've already caught me. We know eventually it'll be forced, we know how these things go. If I play nice, it might save us time.

Doesn't make me like it anymore. We'll have to be careful so they don't learn any absolutes about other things you're capable of.

Can you sense the sarcasm there?
But they will be sorry then.
