"Well, she had been spotted in the company of the others, benefitting from their terrorizing, if nothing else. I think--" Narz pauses there for a second and puts a hand to his throat, noting as most of the others had that his accent and even had shifted towards the end. When he tries a second time to speak after clearing his throat, the same thing happens once more. Thoroughly disturbed at that point, Narz draws upon the weave as he rubbed at his throat again and spoke various words in different languages, before his voice then seemed to normalize... for the most part. At times there was an odd country bumpkin sorta accent to it, and at others it would shift to a deep and more erudite sounding tone.

Dumb as dem 'ill giants tend to be, I wouldn't put past them to know the occasional somthin' somethin'." He said, and if there's no further argument on that note, he'd even take it upon himself to urge Vigo along to take the lead and close the remaining distance on the tower. At which point he'd give the others one last look to make sur ethey were ready before yelling and hoping to attract some attention over the sounds of sobs. He is also mindful not to be too close to the entryway, least he get accidentally punted or worse from any emerging giant.

You find you're able to get within a few feet of the tower without being noticed as the giants own sobs seem to drown put any other noise. While remaining outside you are also hidden from sight giving you an opportunity to call out without necessarily putting yourself in immediate danger. The front door of the old tower is currently blocked with a giant boulder, seeming to indicate the giantess's desire to be left alone. (What would you like to say to her?)
"OI!! A MOMENT OF YOUR TIME, GIANTESS!! WE WOULD ENTREAT WITH YOU AND KNOW WHAT AILS YOUR HEART. MAYHAPS EVEN WE CAN HELP EASE YOUR SUFFERING!" Narz yelled out in [giant], but without any real expectations of being heeded.

The sobbing stops momentarily before theres a loud crash as a large rock bursts through the roof and lands several yards behind you. Go away!! Moog want be left alone!
Aeyd is shaken from her thoughts hearing the large rock burst through the roof. She glances over to Narz then speaks up in the giant tongue to hopefully ebb the giantess out of the tower, or at least figure out what's wrong with them. "Ehm... Lady Moog, I can understand your wanting in being alone, but your cries hurt our hearts and ears to hear! We only wish to help! Is there, em, anyway we can earn your trust? At least enough to find out what ails you so!"

The crying slowly stops and you see her poke her head out the freshly made hole. Small folk usually mean to Moog, b-but you seem nice. Moog hungry. Little ones have food?
Aeyd seems pleased that her words managed to get through the giantess, though she glances over the others. "I, er... Only have rations..." She tells them. "I don't think that they'll fill her... Do you guys have... any ideas?"

Torsus watched the groups actions, if only to see what exactly they would do, since murderhoboing wasn't always the best option... And once things had come to where they were at, Aeyd asking her question. I believe we all only have rations. And I'm certainly not giving her my pony to eat. So perhaps we could hunt some deer or a bear or something for her. if you truly feel this is a necessary use of our time - We might find out something about the group. I am mostly neutral, leaning against it, however that is my solution.
Narz rolled his eyes. Not at Ayed, but at the boulder barring the group from the giantess. "Typical." He muttered before leaning down and whispering something in goblin to his mount. The Worg instantly growled and grumbled and shook his head, before then barking back something in goblin. "I know. Necessary Evil." Narz pats Vigo on the head a couple times then addressed the others. "As you recall last time with those other misguided giants, they'll eat just about anything. So it is fortuitous that I have about hundred pound of feed, give or take." Narz pats the satchel slung over his shoulder. "With a few days worth to spare. GIve me a moment."
At that, He hoped off to dump and reorganize the contents of his bag of holding, leaving behind only the offering in the next few minutes. "Alright! We got your grub, Moog! Now come on out! So long as you stay kind, we small folk be kind in turn."

Moog clumsily pulls herself out of the tower and takes the feed in one hand and shoves it down her throat. Mmmm yummy! You nice small ones. Not like other small ones who throw things at Moog. Not like other giants. Not like Chief. At the mention of the hill giant chief she begins to cry once again.
Torsus was nonplussed but held his opinions. Instead choosing to grab the hook by the balls. After a soft sigh, the tortle spoke loud enough to be heard by the battered housewife Please, tell us of your woes... both with the chief, and the other giants. Perhaps, like we fixed your hunger, we can fix the other problems as well. Tell us as much as you can think of about them, if you would. We are nice to those who aren't mean to us. Much like you! he said, though he was wondering how all that food being effectively tossed away into a single meal was goign to negatively effect them in the future - he wasn't upset at Narz, but worried about the possibilities.
The crying giant stops for just long enough to babble out a few words. Chief Guh, claimed my husband. Now Moog no one to hit when angry. Chief Guh, she is mean, but biggest of all. Make other giants go out and bring back food. She begins to cry again and you can't make out any useful words among her blubbering.
"I see. Or at least, now we have a name perhaps to go to the-..." Narz catches himself there frowning, then those with sharp enough ears would catch the words, "Damnable resurgance" as the hobgoblin muttered and shook his head in disapproval. He then takes a breath and folds his hands behind his back had they not already done so.
"Tell us, uhm.... Moog, was it? This Chief Guh resides, uhm... Does Chief Guh stay near a river up in the hills? With uhm.. a fort of some kind?" He asks in [giant]. Once this suspicion gets confirmed, Narz sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose in further thought for a moment before shaking his head and muttering again. Then aloud he adds, "What would Moog do to get husband back if helped?"

Moog nods and says Uh-huh! Grudd Haug is the fort. Chief chase off women. Keep men to herself. Take my husband. Make them get food. Moog hate Guh! Would smash if Guh weren't so big and scary. What you mean help? You.help Moog get back husband from chief?
(OOC: Assuming by now noone has anything to add, I'll keep things a going)
"Eh... Perhaps. Not yet, though. If this... Chief has as many minions, uhm... other giants at her call, we small folk will need more time to prepare." Narz, who still had troubled keeping his accent, tone, and even vocal mannerism from veering from time to time(and subsequently gave up by now), spent a few seconds brushing his beard in thought. "Great Moog! Would you be willing to protect nearby towns and village of small folk from other small giants and thieves? If do, then someday soon, we can help you get husband back. Does this, uhm, sound agreeable?"

"True. But, uhm, if you would-" Narz stops for a second to give Torsus a confused glance before continuing on recognizing at least some magical influence in the gesture. "-uh, or actually, we can talk to the other small folks. The ones whose farm you visited with other giants. Uhm, Ogres, perhaps. We can talk to them and let them know the deal... if you agree as well."

Artys takes up a position along the wall to the left of the boulder, hoping to put himself behind the giant if she comes out.
