Wouldn't want to abandon you here to die, but if you have it all taken care of that's a load of my mind!"“Oh, that’s good.” You release a sigh of relief. “I wouldn’t want to abandon you here to die, but if you have it all taken care of that’s a load off my mind..!”
“Feh.” The gnome snorts with a haughty air of self confidence. “I’ve survived far, far worse than some psycho wizard assassin and his family of thugs. I’ll wash my hands of this affair by day’s end, with or without the help of some runt witch and her pets in green.”
“Some runt witch..?” You move to defend your master. “I’ll have you know this ‘runt witch’ is–”
“That’s quite alright. I’m sure you can handle this yourself. Right, Snuff?” Your master cuts your defense short with a glare. “A ‘runt witch’ like me would really rather not involve myself in the affair, so let’s cut to the chase and get home without shouting my name for all this foul sewer to hear.”

“I’m telling you. It’s the left path.” The gnome rolls her eyes, arms folded. “What that giant half-wit <span class="mu-i">thinks</span> is of no concern to me. You can go and get yourself butchered by that assassin by yourselves.”
“I trust this half-wit far more than you.” Sigrid responds coldly. You’re at a crossroads here, figuratively and literally–the causeway has forked into a left and right route without any convenient marks to distinguish one from another. The mossperson, it seems, has decided the right path the correct one and refuses to budge. The gnome is intent on the left one.
“I’ve walked these sewers a thousand times before and the closest exit is through the left.” Bredbeddle spits. “My rats have a far better nose than your mossfolk’s. I’m going left.”
You’re far more willing to place your trust in the mossfolk and your master’s decision, but you can’t help but feel that leaving the gnome to travel the left route alone would end up getting her ambushed.
