Gargulec:
Meanwhile, the eldar in the cage started to act... oddly. She turned towards her equipment, and started talking aloud- apparently repeating the same word all over the time. It was not aimed at your eldar, probably. She was calling either Pass or Tobias. What for?

Silhar:
Silharriel had his head risen, listened carefully and considered if he should have started translating...

"Soldier... soldier !", he added, in a formal tone.

Xander Morhaime:
Halsted looked up from sorting through the spoils carried out from DuPont's compound. "What now?" he asked gruffly, glancing briefly at both Eldar before going back to his work. Another large, long package was moved carefully aside, as if he was handling something very fragile... or very dangerous. "What does she want?" he asked, sorting out all the various small items on a spare bunk.

"Hmm... we've got a bit of reading ahead of us," he muttered under his breath as he took out the dataslates they'd lifted out of the compound, only briefly skimming over their contents where possible before setting them aside for later inspection. "Anyway, I would recommend we eliminate DuPont's puppetmaster. He sounded like a noteworthy figure... and if they've decided who to give the big job with the fleet to, chances are they'll be having a celebration of one sort or another. It might be a good opportunity to strike, that," he explained. "This... Arch-Magos Albert, I believe he was called. Failing that, we could try to investigate where DuPont and his lot did their searching for that black stone, whatever it was."

Silhar:
Silharriel turned to Elirenn and translated Halsted's question.

"I personally would see if we can find that black stone, leaving Albert to some greater power, someone above us. Puppetmasters tend to have walls of puppets around them, even at those >>special occasions<< you talk about. Eliminating such with a force of five without proper orbital bombardment or at least artillery support is nigh-on-impossible. No, assassination shall not make the grade neither, I suppose. Who knows what kind of armor shall his cursed body have beneath its skin ?...", he added after he had his task accomplished. "Their leaders walk armored and armed like one-man armies..."
"No. Let us stay with the idea of stone."

Gargulec:
'Ask him, whether he found a small, steel lockbox among my belongings' said Elirenn to Silharriel. 'If he did, ask him if he could give it to me. There is nothing dangerous inside.'
