As the Troll King's gaze turns to you, Skallagrim the Barbarian steps forward and makes his petition... perhaps your conversation with the Great Khan Of The Steppe has awakened a curious eloquence in the Barbarian's untamed spirit, for those who have dwelt long in the wilderness have long guarded their ancestral memory with only the gift of storytelling, their wits and cunning ways with the spoken word.
(QM: Skallagrim acts as described here)
>>5486028>Barbarian: hold up the platypus skull, and repeat back the Troll King's words -- the strong do what they will, the weak suffer what they must. This goblin deserves no sympathy.As Skallagrim concludes his eloquent oration - even Lench the Goblin is now looking a little confused, and unsure of himself - you see the Troll King's eyes squint and recede a little, squelched between his bulging flabby brows. You can see he is flattered, yet simultaneously his vanity is troubled, for he had thought the Barbarian to be dim-witted indeed.
