"So, uh. What kind of trouble are the bandits causing?"
"The usual. Killing more animals than they eat, cutting down trees for their huts and suchlike. Sometimes they try to hunt this one and others. Unsuccessfully of course. But mostly bring too much attention to the Valley. Their presence will bring others. More bandits will follow, and so will soldiers, eventually. The queen cannot allow that."
"Well, is violence necessary? I mean, would it be all right if they left voluntarily?"
"Such noble sentiment. But yes, this one believes the queen would accept such an outcome. As long as the brigands leave, this one and others will not care how. Persuade them, if you wish and can. Or steal the cursed blade. Or break all their spines. This one cares not."
"I... guess I'll decide when I see the situation first hand."
"Most wise choice."
"So... What would be a suitable gift for the Ogres?"
"Various things, this one believes. Gold and jewels perhaps, the Ogres are particular to shine and glitter. Or strong spirits, the more the better. An item of great power wouldn't go amiss. Or an unbedded woman, if you can find one."
"Thank you for lending me your wisdom."
"This one is glad to be of service."
"So, lady Min... Do you enjoy games?"
"Depends on the game. What did you have in mind?"
