The KT splutters and gurbles, eyes lolling about. "You folks, you were in Sloobludop! You saw what happened there! Me and Glorpleglop got out of there, took a boat we did! Paddled and paddled and paddled, and here we are!"
((It is the same one Lia recognized, if I didn't say that before.))

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Stena shakes her head slowly,
"No. Ye will remember now. We saved ye from that water thing. Ye are lucky we didn't just kick you back in. Tell meh what ye remember and if aye feel like ye are being honest we can discuss what yer future looks like."
"Pssh. Drow lady yell at other drow, smack them around with stick thing, cause they not want to go into town where Deep Father is. Plibbleburp not see more than that, just drow running into town after she smack them."

”Can’t I just be happy?” He says with an offended tone. “I just have a positive outlook, for once, after beating that thing in the water. I feel good. Everything is going to be fine!”
"It has been telling meh that it saw a group of drow, led by a drow 'lady' at the edge of Sloopidoop when that thing was there. She apparently forced some other drow into that trash heap for something rather than running. Could be nothing, could have been a pursuit. Aye doubt the drow have any idea where we are now, since we barely do, but our companions were still there."
She shakes her head,
"Nothing to be done about that now."
Looking back to the KT she tells it,
"Ok. Ye have 10 seconds to convince meh why we should allow ye to stay onboard."
They look nervously around, then back at the water and the lonely Darklake.
"No better than Plibbleburp at getting around the lake, nope! I work for you now, guide, fish, cook, you need extra hands on oars, I'm your guy! Going to duergar city? Strong, protected, not let Deep Father stomp through town..." He shivers at the memory of Sloobludop.

"If he helps find food, keep him. If not, back in water."
He then leans closer to Stena, keeping his voice low.
"Neth hide something. Not know what. Too happy now but should keep eye on him."
Gal then picks up one of the poles and gives it to the KT and nods at the water. At the same time he goes back to polling the boat back to the main waterway.
((Is it the same day that Lia fell asleep at the oars? If so, she would probably attempt to rest unless the party needs hands getting back into a position to be able to properly rest))
((Yes, you're only about halfway through your long rest, Galingal has not tranced yet, so you've got another 4 hours of rest, if you take off in the boat, you'd have to start making CON Saves vs exhaustion and will have to restart your long rest if you go on too long.))

She decides it isn't worth her time and goes back to her KT interrogation.
The KT splutters and gurbles, eyes lolling about. "You folks, you were in Sloobludop! You saw what happened there! Me and Glorpleglop got out of there, took a boat we did! Paddled and paddled and paddled, and here we are!"

"We were and we did. You are here, Glarp," she points to where the water is likely still red, "is there."
She lets that sink in before repeating,
"Where were ye heading?"
Then following up with,
"Did ye see anyone else from our group while ye escaped?"
"Who's Glarp? Friend of yours?"
"Heading away, away, away... Who your group?"

She doesn't care that the KT doesn't seem to remember its dead companion and clarifies, with rapidly diminishing patience.
"Ye recognized us, yes? Ye knew we were in Sloopidoop, did ye see any of the rest that were with us as ye headed away?"
"Uh, yes, drows, yes saw the drow. They were talking to other drow."
((Glarp =/= Glorpleglop, it thought you were talking about someone else.))

((Nah, just trying to show Stena's general contempt for them by not even bothering to try and pronounce it's name right.))
Stena pauses at that.
"Which other drow? What did they look like? Did they have anything special about them?"
"Ummm.. so hungry... Hard to remember..."
It looks up at Steve with what perhaps passes as a winning smile.
Buppido snorts and draws a thumb across his neck with a questioning look.

Galingal lets the others deal with the KT. He keeps his eyes on Neth.
"You hide something," Galingal says. "What happen in water? Why so happy?"
"Pssh. Drow lady yell at other drow, smack them around with stick thing, cause they not want to go into town where Deep Father is. Plibbleburp not see more than that, just drow running into town after she smack them."

Neth balks at Galingals accusation.
”Can’t I just be happy?” He says with an offended tone. “I just have a positive outlook, for once, after beating that thing in the water. I feel good. Everything is going to be fine!”
Galingal stares at Neth for a few moments before responding.
”Nothing fine before. Nothing fine now. Nothing fine. But keep secrets. Okay. But if secret harm us then you not fine.”
Galingal moves over to where Stena is questioning the KT.
”Keeping kuo-toa or put back in water?”
In common,
"It has been telling meh that it saw a group of drow, led by a drow 'lady' at the edge of Sloopidoop when that thing was there. She apparently forced some other drow into that trash heap for something rather than running. Could be nothing, could have been a pursuit.

Stena relays Plibble's offer those that don't speak undercommon and adds her opinion on the matter in common,
"It is another mouth to feed but aye do like the chance to not rely on just one person knowing the way."
She studiously doesn't look over at Buppy who is probably watching her.
Lia suggests, “Perhaps we keep this one until we meet land… then he can do as he wants… He may be useful still, while on the lake anyway…”.
