Anoras: "I am a naturalist and a healer, Mystic Shadowmask. What will be done with them is not my decision. That will be up to others to decide." (After she, of course, stubbornly tells those others what she wants to happen.)

Anoras, "Thank you, Mystic Shadowmask. But please consider this. These are capable warriors who were willing to risk their lives to follow the orders of a sorcerer. These are warriors who, when no longer under orders, did not support the rebellion. And did not attack the people of Holidor or Haunden.

"I think, Mystic Shadowmask, it would be hard to find more valuable followers than these. I believe that would be worth much, much more that the price of a slave."


Also a reminder that the below wasn't spoken just to Shadowmask, but to all those Venasir speakers nearby. A big part of the intent was to get the others to wonder:

But still, you must have.... Oh. With this battle and the unfortunate losses, and the language barrier, it's possible you might not have gotten the message. Please forgive me for asking, but as a healer, I am concerned. As you are a sorcerer, have you been treated for birdpaux?"

Rolling Fast-Talk to get ShadowMask and the people listening wondering.
