During this whole exchange, Rees is just hanging back, watching and listening. Does it seem like Yusdrayl is being open or are they holding anything back? (I don't know if I'd be able to tell that or not, given Rees' limited knowledge of kobolds)

Talien thanks Yusdrayl and asks under what condition he wants the prisoner returned.
Talien goes to were the prisoner is being held and talks with the guards. He asks tells them of the joint mission and asks if the goblin inside speaks common. He also inquires if the goblin is restrained. If he is restrained, Talien will enter the room, inside and what does he see?

As you go to leave the large guard steps forward and slams his spear shaft onto the ground halting you. Yusdrayl leans forward on her throne, “Halt iron man! Where do you think you’re going? You leave when I say this audience is over and you leave with Meepo!”
My apologizes Yursdrayl. The mechanism is not of our realm. He comes from a much different world and is ignorant of many customs beyond combat. We are trying to teach him manners, but it is slow going in the two days we have known him. We have not had the chance to delve into royal protocol yet. We've barely gotten past inappropriate touching.

Yusdrayl snorts and she replies in a sharp tone, “Very well. No offense taken. You may interrogate the prisoners when we have finished speaking. But, they remain in chains and within the confines of our prison. Now... which of these items do you choose as an advance for returning Calcryx?”
Arxius is relieved to know Meepo will come with them. She has concerns for his welfare. She watches Grom inspect the items. "What do you think, Grom?"
"There is some good items here that we could use..." (Kinda speaking to himself kinda replying to you) Opening each scroll and reading it.. pops the cork open on the flask smells it... maybe dips a finger in and tastes a slight bit... picks up the token... feels the weight...
"To the Group these 3 Items here should give us the most assistance on our quest!" I will take the Knock, the Token with the Feather and the Flask of liquid.
{Did Grom actually tell us what Fenris said they were?}
What do the token and the potion do Grom? I gather the scrolls are magical, but are they ones that any may use or are they spells for magic users?
{If the potion were a healing potion, is that something Alten might be familiar enough with to identify? In my games, healing potions are always green liquid with floating red globuals - the amount of globuals differentiate levels}

"Während ihr den Prisioner eingreift, werde ich diese Gegenstände vorbereiten und sie dann, wenn ihr fertig seid, an die Party verteilen"
While you guys intergate the prisioner i will prepare these items and then once you are done i will distribute them to the party
When the group goes to speak with the prisioner i will ritual cast Identify on the token and flask.
OOC: once we are in agreement grom would either A: Follow group into area where they gonna talk to prisioners and just find a corner and do his thing there or B: he would go back to hallway and do it there. Definitely wouldnt want to be in sight of Yusdrayl or hopefully the group is busy with other tasks to notice him figuring out wtf he just got
Yusdrayl nods, “Very well. These items are yours.” She tosses the key to Arxius, “And here is the key.”
She glares at Meepo one more time and coldly says, “Take them to see the prisoners.”
With that Meepo bows and motions for the party to follow him. Meepo exits via the southern hall near the throne. Meepo is silent as he turns the corner and walks you to the prison (the room with the little goblins on the map, the larger of the two rooms adjacent to the Hall of Dragons). The souther door to the prison looks like the northern door which you passed while walking through the Hall of Dragons. It is oaken with an iron bar securing it from the outside. Meepo wraps on the door and yells, “Ticklecorn!” Then opens slides the bar open. You hear the sound of a lock clicking open from the inside and the door opens as Meepo motions you inside.
The inside of the prison is poorly lit, but you see there are two lightly armored kobold guards watching over their captives. One stands near the souther door in which you entered and the other at the northern door. In the middle of the (20x30) chamber are four disheveled goblins. They wear rags caked in dry blood and grime. The room smells like unwashed bodies, but the kobold guards don’t seem bothered in the slightest by it.
Grom waits outside and plies his trade on the items you revived from Yusdrayl. @ShaZadam What spell do you cast to attempt this?

Talien's eyes glow red, but at Altens warning he turns back to the party.
To Talien, before going into the area where the prisoners are held
Do you know the 'good guard, bad guard' routine to interrogate prisoners?
Before I left my realm I was taught how to get infomation I need on one of your kinds if we captured one with knowledge.Talien says this flatly while pulling out his dagger. I start cutting off finger nails and toe nails then start to remove fingers and toes one at a time, with the smallest pieces possible once you start cutting into the body.(does someone speak goblin or do they speak common?)

kobolds are hard to read indeed. This can probably be attributed to their reptilian like nature.
DM Note: The +4 includes the +2 prof bonus already. See the OOC thread for more info.
In a warning tone
Talien. . . please wait for all of us to finish.
If he tries to respsond, I'll try to cut him off.

Yusdrayl asks impatiently, “So, you’ve decided then? We have an agreement?”
I defer to our arcanist for his expertise and Arxius's wisdom in this matter.
