Velon nods at Lawrance’s words hoping Perry will take those into account. He whispers “let’s be sure to get information on anyone who has been here in the last two or three weeks as well.” “It would be a shame not to get any information if Varram or anyone else has already left. Also, what happens if we try to take out this summoner and fail as some of us fall in battle. We’d give it an honest effort, of course, but what if it is too powerful? Any chance this summoner is not evil and we wouldn’t want to sign in for this? It seems unlikely, I know. Just a thought.”

Velon looks to Taz, Lia, Poljen, Niko and the rest for their thoughts.

"Not that my opinion matters as much as everyone else's here, but isn't killing this person who wants to kill us anyway worth it if we manage to get information that, oh I don't know, helps us from dying horribly in this place?" Perry asks.

"Also, you all want to retrieve this item of interest badly, right? Something about stopping the end of the world or some such? What is one person worth compared to information that would save the world?"

Lia purses her lips as she debates the options." I'm torn on this. If it is an enemy that we would kill it is one thing. We can't be sure of that until we agree however. On the other hand, I don't trust any that summon and have dealings with devils. In my opinion we agree to this. Any summoner of devils is an agent of evil."

Mari watches the devils in fear. She bites her lip to try to keep calm.

Poljen frowns. "I wish to add one condition to the bargain. Once we slay the summoner, they return to their… plane of existence? That is what it is called, yes? I do not want to leave them free to roam our world. If they agree to that, I am willing to try to slay their foe in return for information."

"It depends on the nature of the command the summoner has set. If the summoner dies, sometimes the summoned remain for a set amount of time or not leave until banished. If that's the case, we'd have another task to take on. This is a chance that may cause issues in the future, or may not, against information that could be essential to our success. I vote for the trade, but only commit one of us to the task."

The Protector. says...

Tazskan, smiles at Lia's rebuke of Perry, having drunk an unknown potion. He thanks, Lawrence and Poppo for their discernment of the magical items use.

Tazskan, reluctantly accepts the party's plan on trying to fool these devils. By pretending to be Perry's prisoner.
As the devils, didn't believe this ruse, then subsequently requested that the party, kill the one who bought them to this plane.

A shiver, caresses Tazskans spine momentarily.
" Can we be certain that this summoner, whom the devil's refer to as an idiot, is evil,"? He answers.

"However, I for one cannot condone doing a deal with devils, where it requires me kill someone whom I don't know a great deal about," Tazskan gives a polite nod in Velon and Lia's direction.

Amabalis will join Gamliel at the rear of the group both inconspicuous.

The Quiet Shadow says...

Speaking up on the situation, Zarra will say, "I'd say we make a deal with them, but actually write it up as a contract instead of just verbally. That way we can work out the exact wording of the agreement, and try to avoid any loopholes. Perhaps for example requiring only one of us to kill him. Thus absolving the more righteous among us, if for some reason the summoner is not evil." It was the one part that the drow knew they had to be most careful of when dealing with outsiders such as these devils, not to be trapped in a deal based on wording or to allow the devils unfair advantage.

Perry turns back to the devils after hearing the group’s relative consensus. “All right we can do the deal, but before we make it you devils have to agree to leave and go back to the Nine Hells once the idiot person who summoned you to this plane is dead. Also, I’d like the agreement in writing please.”

“So here it is: I’ll kill this idiot for you, but only if he’s still alive when I attempt to do so. I can’t kill what’s already dead after all, but that should still suffice for this agreement. Anyway, if you agree, here’s what I want to know:

1. Who is this idiot and what were his exact orders to you?
2. How do you benefit from listening to him? Why leave the Nine Hells to come here? What is your true mission?
3. Have you seen a dwarf pass through here lately? He may have been traveling with a group. If so, where is he, what happened to him and his group when you saw them, and what does he seek?
4. Have you seen any other people pass through here in the last 2 or 3 weeks? If so, who were they and what were they after?
5. What do you know of this place and its inhabitants? What and where are other traps that we can avoid? What kind of monsters lurk in this place? What information do you know about these monsters?”.
