The Sorcerer-King's Quarries

Sabrina moves forward and speaks up with a firm voice : "My name is Sabrina Duchannes.We are invited by your king. If you can please take us to him".

Sabrina takes out the letter and hands it over to the guard with a grind "Yes, of course"

It was a good thing that Thyssk was not asked for his letter. After all, it had been of little use to him, and it tasted awful, so he had mostly been using it for wiping his rear after his inevitable parting of ways with his meat pies. In its current state it would likely not be well received.

Peering into the courtyard he became a little worried again. That was a lot of beardy pinkskins in metal armor.
"Trap?" He queried upwards to his scaly companion.

Cielo hands over his letter silently as he follows the scaley contingent into the courtyard. Luckily, the pair commanded most of the attention from the others, leaving Cielo thankfully unharassed. Like others, he had been distracted by the kobold and lizardman and had failed to notice the red-haired woman approaching from behind. He wondered about her origins but tried not to stare.

This was promising to be a day full of surprises.

Sabrina asks the guard: "Are you preparing for a ceremony? Or is it a welcome festive for us?"

"Excuse me, but why we need to be safe in his palace? I dont understand..." replied a little bit annoyed, because they did not care to throw her a welcome party.

Cielo, having though the very same thing turns to Sabrina and speaks for the first time.
"That is odd isn't it?"
Ever more concerned about the bad portents he had seen earlier.

Sabrina notices more carefully the blue creature. She was amazed how he looked like and that he transformed into swan. Is it half human half monster or a magical creature ? She wondered....What is he? She also felt a little bit compassion, because herself was also half breed, even though she had a loyal familyname , sometimes some naive people did not respect her enough. She says to him. "Indeed, and you are...?"

Clickclack listens to the softskin talk. So much jabber. He looks at the dwarf called Tharizek. Then he takes a few steps closer to him. "Lead on," he says. Nothing else needs to be said.

"I am Cielo." he says simply with a slight bow.

Sabrina grins and then she noticed the lizard passing by. What an ugly creature and it can talk common, so wierd.

Sabrina bows too with a firm face "I am Sabrina Dutchaness. I have no other questions, you can lead us to your king" trying to hide her thoughts... Torturers... She knew that many kings where using this method, but for her diplomacy was always more important then doing things in barbaric ways.

Clickclack listens carefully to Tharizek's words. He knows that often the softskins lie, but even their lies often contain useful information. Probably the palace is a dangerous place for outsiders - especially those like Clickclack that obvious don't belong. Clickclack can't think of any questions that would yield reliable, useful information, so he stays quiet. And observes.

Cielo looks about, wary of any "potential misunderstandings" that might be brewing, but he says nothing.
He considers that any questions he might have will be answered soon enough as he follows the others, staying closer to Sabrina than the less inviting scaled members.
