The sound of voices muttering in the distance, where a field of tents were erected, filled the air. A few minutes after the Marshal's proclamation, a warrior emerged from the encampment, along with several others, holding his spear close but not apparently rushing to the attack. He approached the Skulk, and then spoke in the slow sonorous speech of the Plains.
"Very well, man of Ego. You have us, though be warned, we will not be bidding pieces for your games. Speak your piece, if you have ought to say." A number of warriors, perhaps three dozen, followed behind him; the man had not the aspect of a chief, but of a war leader.
" It seems your braves were right, you have our agents but we also know that you attack a peace envoy for vengeance. We're not the ones who have attack your brother, this Haehko. We do know who did however and we believe that he maybe moving against you, your tribe, maybe even your brothers."
He motioned to one of the Skulk and they brought the captives that were left by the band. They were shackled but were patched up with bandages and looked healthy.
" Now look, we have your braves and they have been treated for their injuries when you ambushed the envoy. We want them back and you can have your warriors back but we want to come with an arrangement before the Butcher does make a move. We know that after five years ago there's been trouble amongst your people but if the Butcher is taking out strong leaders like yours, then we can't let that happen. My mistress would like for Oshanko to at least come to our Community so perhaps there is a way to help your people or at least protect you from such enemies."
