Out of Character: Yah, Zarra would have kept near to the others when they go to talk to the lizardmen. I don't remember seeing it saying anything about there being all that much distance. She would have heard the conversation.

"They make us carry heavy boxes. Brought to edge of swamp to south. Metal things inside, gold, silver. Some goes to kings, tribute. Most goes to our home. Guard is… stone man, big, legs as tall as me"
"As to warmbloods, many kinds. All wear black cloths. Carry banner with black wing on it."
Fay listens to the conversation, sensing Velon had a good handle on it. Finally he adds, "We can help ye. I think we would anyway if these warm bloods be who I think they be. But what help do ye offer in return. I never be one to turn down help from an unexpected source in an unlikely place."
He thinks to himself, "It seems we are getting all kinds of unexpected help in unlikely places." He looks at Zara and gives a slight nod.
Lia stays back and watches the facial expression of the lizardfolk. Receiving the message from Velon she grins and responds in the same manner. " That is great news. Keep up the good work. Depends upon what kind of help they need. As to my appearance… Thank you. It takes a lot of work. I don't sleep Velon. Remember? "
She glances to Jack. " It seems they want help of some sort. They don't want to attack us I suppose. That's nice. I really don't relish fighting 40 of them. I know how you men are though. " She looks back to the meeting ahead with a hint of a smile on her face.

Snapjaw shrugs and says, "What help you need? Can help get you through swamp, help kill something, or take something. Two score fighters are with me. Twice more wait outside our home. If we free hostages first, they can join."
"One thing we won't do, if you here for the Black Death, you on own."
"Is the Black Death one of the dragons which sees this swamp as its territory," The drow asks Snapjaw, curious to learn what the lizardman may be speaking of. Zarra will also add looking to those she travelled with, "A small army could possibly be helpful, but I remember it being said that you're trying to not draw too much attention to yourself?"

Cratol listen to all that is being said. He looks over at the Drow elf and wonders why she is pushing for them to join up. Is this why she wanted company to see to her safe passage to meet with her real companions? Is this all a set up? He turns from the negotiations and heads back and to tell Lia his thoughts.
