"Greetings Orvex, We are but a sad bunch of adventures who traveled into these jungles looking for treasure...fortune and glory types. Unfortunately we have become lost and happened upon this ruined city and you. What are you doing here and what may I ask lead to you being under all that rubble?"

OOC I take that as a Insight, it is more appropriate. Also, roll for me a Deception check, please.
Orvex:" Treasure hunters? And you became lost in... Omu? Well, you are the luckiest mother****ers I have ever seen. This lost city is the jewel of a forgotten empire, treasures aplenty."
He takes one more generous sip of water, nodding at Inete as a sign of gratitude.
"I came here to guide my companions, while I was most excited to see the lost city, try to learn the culture of the Omunans. We were attached by the snake-folk, I came here to hide, but the building collapsed over my head after an explosion. An unfortunate series of events, that was."
"Sounds like it has been very unfortunate. Seems this island is full of such unfortunate events for all. Who were your companions and do you know of their fate? Also are you a guide out of Port Nyanzaru?"
Orvex:" Not much of guide, more an archaeologist. Love discovering things of long lost cultures. Oh, my companions are, or were, depending on their fate, of which I am not certain, the Red Wizard of Thay. We should have a base in the northern section of this compound. "
And one more sip of water goes down. At the mention of the red wizards, Artus and Dragonbait unsheathe their blades.
Musharib: " Oh, for Moradin's arse, who are these wizards? "
"It keep my face clean." Felix will lift his mask and show the black bandages underneath. He currently has happy on witch is cracked back when they met Iason.

Inete:" I was, although I thought we would have found them in the Basin. Master Orvex, if I may, what are the wizards looking for in Omu? "
Orvex: " My dear, I truly do not know, nor care. They said some arcane stuff, and I would not be surprised to find some here. Oh, thank all the trickster gods of Omu, we left that damned Basin. Maybe I can introduce you to them? We can join our forces against the snake-folk."

"Orvex, I am Kurma. It seems you have been hired by those wizard for your skills, isn't it? Since we saved you from a certain death, what about you use those skills for us ? How much do you know about this city ? (Insight: 27 + 2 (Guidance))
I must tell you, those Red Wizard, I think they are bad news and we don't want to do anything with them."
Then talking at the rest of the group. "this man doesn't seems dangerous and could be a asset if he knows as much as he is saying. I can cast a Zone of Truth on him at the next rest if you feel like it also."

Orvex seems telling the truth about his knowledge of the city.
Felix will try to help the injured human quickly.
