"I don't remember his face well, but perhaps I look enough like him to fool the giants. If they take me for him, they will be satisfied and everyone will be safe. It is my duty. "
With an unusual hardening of his voice that seems as much like he his trying to convince himself as Beldora, Sirac walks past her toward the South Gate.
Beldora grabs Sirac, shoving him into the nearest doorway Don’t be a fool, do you really think they’ll stop? No, they’ll just move to the next person or item they are looking for. Plus, there are others here, that have arrived to help
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Duvessa raises her voice calling out to the giants trying to buy time . “ The individual you speak of is not known to us. But if he is wanted by you then we will assist where we can , allow us to conduct a search for them . 1 hour , but you will not enter our walls! “
"Beldora, would you have me throw away the lives of all these innocents and these unaware travellers just to save my own skin? I cannot. I will not."
Sirac pauses in thought.
"Truth be told I am a terrible liar anyway. They would not believe me. We should go and see the speaker. Have her exile me in my father's name and have me cast out of the town to meet the giants. If I take a horse I can ride out and lead them away from the walls."
Drufi, the giantess, considers Duvessa’s suggestion. “You have 20 minutes before I start bombarding your small holding back to the rubble it came from!”

Fine, we can see the speaker but if you think I’m going to let you go out to those giants then think again
Brennan looks to Markham and Duvessa who shrug before he turns back to Eoan “never heard of the fella. You sure you wanna go out there? We’re ready to back you up if it goes wrong but you may have to survive a hot minute without back up until we get there.”
"Sir, I'm humbled by the nobility of your plan. However, you should not have to pay for whatever crimes my father has committed against the giants. He is a cad and has been absent from my upbringing; I can only imagine what he has done. Let me ride out instead. My family's burden should not fall to another."
He relays his plan, generally facing the speaker as he does.
Eoan slaps Sirac on the shoulder and smiles . “ Nonsense, you’ll get turned into paste, then they’ll come straight for the town . I’ve had my share of frost giant run ins in my time and I stand here before you , don’t I . Let’s not get confused by what I’m doing here . It’s not for you or you’re thieving father , but for everyone else in the town . If you really must help , you can come running if shit goes sideways. “
Eoan gets up and wanders to the gate composing himself and trying to obscure his face with the hood of his jacket. “Keep an eye out lads, I get the feeling I’ll need you.”
You hear a low moaning from out side the walls. Drufi is sounding a massive gem encrusted horn. “Time is up! You were warned.” Next you hear is screams from the other sides of town as 9 other frost giants begin lobbing massive rocks over the walls at the building within.
On hearing the screams Eoan clicks his heels together triggering boots of speed and exits the gate , hands aloft , “ Call them off ! ... I surrender! “
Eoan jogs out to meet the giants at running pace facing the ground and stops 60 feet out “ I said call them off or I’ll be gone from here and I’ll make sure you don’t catch up to me again “
Markham turns to Augrek “Head to the other gates and rally the other guards, pepper those giant ****ers with quarrels until the leave or die whatever happens first! Quickly go!”
Drufi sees Eoan speeding towards her. “Are you Cimber? Hand over the circle of frost now! If you don’t not only will you die but everyone here will share your fate!”

Beldora and Suzail arrive at the southern gatehouse in time to see Eoan finishing up applying his disguise.
“Anything anyone can offer me as advice on this guy before I go out and meet these big nasties ? “ Eoan scans the eyes in the room for help .
Brennan looks to Markham and Duvessa who shrug before he turns back to Eoan “never heard of the fella. You sure you wanna go out there? We’re ready to back you up if it goes wrong but you may have to survive a hot minute without back up until we get there.”
Sirac gets the low down on what is happening.
"Sir, I'm humbled by the nobility of your plan. However, you should not have to pay for whatever crimes my father has committed against the giants.

Jhee-Kharr gets up on to the walls as Eoan runs out, to better overhear any giantspeak subterfuge.
Sirac is slow to react but runs toward the gate after Eoan, not able to manage even close to his speed.
Augrek signals to the guards to ready themselves and aim toward the giants to cover Eoan. Leo prepares to strike a preemptive blow
Eoan jogs out to meet the giants at running pace facing the ground and stops 60 feet out “ I said call them off or I’ll be gone from here and I’ll make sure you don’t catch up to me again “
Markham turns to Augrek “Head to the other gates and rally the other guards, pepper those giant ****ers with quarrels until the leave or die whatever happens first! Quickly go!”

I need some assurance of these people’s safety before you get the circle ...
