OOC:
I had actually posted this before reading G3rmanicus's reply, which was a really good step in the right direction :) Maybe you didn't need the nudge after all!

Pageflap gives a nod and a thumbs up, always willing to gather more information. He scarfs down the rest of his food and gives a chirp to his familiar, which responds by running into his sleeve, hidden from sight. "I'm game to continue forth," he repeats.

Then let us interview some ruffians! Perhaps if someone were to question Redbeard, I could better study his mannerisms. I believe I have his voice well enough, but I have only seen him in battle and not how he conducts himself otherwise.

Sheriff Willowmane takes you* to the jail, where the two surviving Night Blades are chained to a wall behind bars, singed and spattered in dried blood. Neither look happy to see you.

Red Beard stares you straight in the eye through his blackened face.

"The Night Lord is going to fuck you up six ways from Sunday if you don't know a few things. Not gonna waste time with bartering. I want freedom for me and Skeetz here, and I want the Night Lord's golden mask. You give me those things and I'll give you the edge you need to take him out. Then we'll leave your valley forever after that. What do you say?"

* Whoever wants to go can go. If you'd like to start a different scene, like scouting the Lonely Tower, feel free :)

He's a salty one, he is, Kit mutters under his breath, taking careful note of the mannerisms, dress, and faces of both bandits.

Ah, pretty straight to the point. Whether we like it or not we're in the thick of it now. Let's see what you got, and once we're done I'll personally speak with the Sheriff to make sure your fate is no longer one of bars and chains. For ones like us a life of captivity is no life at all.
Barendd hoped that the bandits would pick up that he and they are both from similar stock as far as the law is concerned, though he's also sure to not say something that promises on something he can't deliver upon.
As far as the mask is concerned, all of our party is too handsome to have need for such an accessory. I don't see it as something we need to hold onto.
Barendd again is careful to intimate that the bandits will get what they want without specifically saying it. Among criminals promises are laws that are respected, honor among thieves and all that. He's not sure these particular bandits we're savvy enough to pick up on his subtleties, but he was sure that they'd know the words he spoke were true, as they came from.one criminal to another.

OOC:
Thanks Starrbeardo. Give me a persuasion or deception check, your choice based on how you think Barendd is playing this.

Pageflap pays attention to both bandits, waiting for their attention to be fully focused on Barennd. Squirming in place as subtly as he can, he has the weasel exit his clothing through his leg once both their gazes are on him and then run and hide behind some furniture.

Roll a stealth check for your weasel :) That's fun to say!you can have advantage as someone is distracting.

The weasel sneaks towards the piece of furniture Pageflap was standing nearest to.

Weasel stealth - (1d20+5)

(7) + 5 = 12

With advantage! - (1d20+5)

The weasel moves like a shadow and goes undetected.

Red Beard looks at you skeptically.

"Pretty words, Dwarf. I almost feel a heartfelt bond between us."

He pretends to wipe a tear away in hyperbole.

"I like this plan better. Skeetz and me will go together with all of you and kill the Night Lord and the rest of the Night Blades. Helping you will repay for the trouble we caused, and we'll head the fuck out of the valley the minute the Night Lord dies and never come back. On our word. And in exchange for our secret knowledge about the Lonely Tower, we'll take the Night Lord's golden mask with us."

"It's a win-win scenario, except if you're the Night Lord."

"Well? You in?"

Oh! says Kit in surprise. Yes, well, that sounds delightful! He moves toward the jail cell door as he says to his companions, This went better than we could have anticipated! He lowers his voice in a conspiritorial tone, though he is still quite audible to everyone. Frankly, I think we could use the help. Turning back to Red Beard he says, Don't worry, I'll have you and Mr. Skeeze, is it? I'll have you and Mr. Skeeze out of there in two shakes.

"Now hold it right there, my friend." Torden says evenly, his hand on Kit's arm. "Releasing them isn't our decision to make. We should talk to the sheriff. And that's assuming this is what we want to do. I don't trust that one's word any more than I relish a knife in the back."

I have no worry in letting these two loose, between us we can easily restrain them. Iman nods at Barendd, silently agreeing with his methods.
But why so easily swayed on betrayal? I guess that’s the bandit way then huh? Can’t say I blame ya. Tell us what you know about the lonely torch and what we should expect on the way there. Iman Says to Red Beard.

"The Night Lord treated us like a dog on a leash. Now I'll be a dog on the end of YOUR leash, but at the end of the day I won't be on a leash anymore. Still a fucking dog though! Haw haw haw! Ain't that right, Skeetz?"

Skeetz mostly is quiet, his head hanging low. You can see him nod his head, but he avoids making eye contact.

"It's not just personal though. I see the way the wind is blowing. You lot are a tough bunch and if anyone can knock him off the top rung it's you. Figure I'll take this a sign the Gods want me to turn a new leaf. We'll take that gold mask, melt it down, and start a fucking pub somewhere thirsty. Now there's a living! You rob people blind all the same, but they pat you on the back for it! Haw haw haw!"
Feb 13, 2018 4:51 pm
Torden lets go Kit's arm. "I'll drink at your pub and raise a toast to your health if you'll keep your word."

"My word don't mean much, but my money's where my mouth is and that is a whole lot more trustworthy in my experience. Well, what are we waitin' fer? If we hurry, we might catch the Night Lord still taking his morning shit!"
Feb 14, 2018 7:07 pm
Having been silent for most of the interrogation, Pageflap interrupts with a "Caw!" He holds up his hand in a wait gesture. He walks towards the door, speaking in Barennd's voice, "Well, this plan seems to be coming together. How do we proceed?" He then motions for everyone, including the sheriff, to follow him outside of the room, communicating that they should come to a decision without Red Beard trying to further manipulated the outcome. The rest should be debated between themselves.

And with everyone outside the room, the bandits may let something slip within range of the weasel's ears.
