[Malkaer Andares]

Whether the slave story worked or not was not crucial. What was important was that Anvael realized that blurting out the truth or important information, as he sometimes naively did, was a bad idea. This he did and not only played along well but also avoided the next trick of the orcish diplomat. Admittedly it was rather crude and obvious, but still effective and the esh’lahier could compliment his sibling later on for his act. If it succeeded and Malkaer did not end up as Worg food that is.

”Your lordship is most merciful…” Malkaer whispered audibly. Hopefully he would be cut lose so that he could scuttle to Anvael’s protective side.
