"You didn't answer my first question." Arcantos said, a hint of a growl in his voice as he spoke. Not quite glaring at the newcomer, but his gaze was anything but nice. "You've given us no reason to trust you, and quite a few reasons to distrust you."

"Harumph, you're no fun. Not like you've given me any reason to trust you - but that hasn't stopped me from asking you this favour.  I assureyou any delay caused by my errand will be more than made up for."

"Anyways, what are you even accusing me of?  You think I'm in league with this... what do they call themselves now... Coatltec empire?  How laughable.

"You really needn't worry yourselves. Who I am isn't important right now. I've made my offer, take it or leave it."

Ch'aska may not have had a lot of experience dealing with others who were not from her village, but even she knew this llama sounded shady. Still, if he was willing to help save her brother and the other captives, they might as well hear him out. The least the could do was find out exactly what it was that he wanted in the temples. She wasn't going to necessarily hand over extremely dangerous artifacts over to some llama she didn't know, but if not..." If, and only if, we were to agree to this proposal, what kind of artifacts would we be retrieving?

History Check:

Something moved under the llama's cloak- looking like he was waving a hoof vaguely as he responded to Ch'aska (not that you can see it clearly-  how does he even move under so much fabric?)

"Simple things, probably an orb or bauble of some sort, one from each temple.  You'll know them when you see them- shouldn't even be that hard to find."

Ch'aska felt even more uneasy with that answer. "Just a bauble." That sounded plausible and not at all suspicious. " If you don't mind my asking, if it's so simple why do you need us to retrieve them?

"I just can't!"  He snapped momentarily before recomposing himself

"Ah, I can't.  Not physically able to.  Have you seen the size of those things?  Whew!  Talk about steps.  The ruined city itself is so confusing - I get lost just looking at it, but you lot seem to know your way around."

Arcantos listened in on the conversation between the llama with them and the cloaked llama as he thought about what was being asked and what was offered. Once the newcommer snapped, Arcantos had heard enough.

"No deal. You aren't telling us the whole story that much is obvious, and even if you did I doubt it would be the truth. Find some other lackies to fetch those artifacts. We have more important things to do."

Then, after this though, his body tensed suddenly, and he turned his head so he could look over his shoulder, looking a the young dragon on his back. "Did the priest guy ever tell you anything about the skull?"

Piasa wondered at the strange conversation his allies were having, before jumping in himself. "Who are you, anyway? Why would those griffons not be part of the Coatltec Empire? I don't think you are who you appear to be, and would appreciate a little more honesty towards the drakes you're asking to retrieve ancient artifacts from sacred temples."

"Yes, I see, more important things, like talking about skulls.  Now who's sounding suspicious?"

He turns to Piasa

"Well, aren't you insistent on the identity issue, huh?  I could give you any number of names- but would you believe me?  How about this- I'll tell you, truthfully, who I am, once you've done my task.  Until then, let's preserve my lovely sense of mystery."

He seems confused at Piasa's other question.

"I didn't say the Griffons weren't:  I said it's not like I'm working with them."

Piasa looks a bit confused at the strange llama's last line, before enlightenment dawned on him. "My apologies, unknown one, I must have misheard you the first time." He turned around, finally noticing Arcantos looking very fed up with the stranger. "Alright, hold on. I've had an idea. I can take one of our willing companions with me back to the city, to look for this strange llama's artifacts, and you can take Rufus, whichever of our companions wishes to go with you, and this mysterious one, to track the griffons. You don't like him much, but neither do I, I don't trust him on his own while we do this. He promises us aid in our hunt, and we would be foolish to throw that away. But if he betrays us once he has what he wants, there is strength in numbers, and two against one are still not good odds against someone who keeps his cards held so close to his chest. Do not worry about how we will find you again, me and Rufus will always know each others location, no matter how far. Does anyone object, and does anyone volunteer?"

A large part of Ch'aska was telling her that this was a bad idea, but her mind kept coming back to a single thought: He could help save Catequil. She owed him to see what this was, and if she didn't try and something went wrong, she would always wonder...
"If we want to split, I'll go with you to look at these artifacts, Piasa.

"I would be glad to have you accompany me, Ch'aska. We just need to know," he said, turning to Arcantos, "do you agree to this. This can only work if we all agree."

Erudis thinks on the question for a moment, "I know the skull was that of his mentor, the high priest before him, nothing more."

"I see..." Arcantos said with a frown, not exactly happy with the answer. He wasn't exactly happy with Piasa's and Ch'aksa's desicions either. But what more annoyed him was how Piasa bugged him about it, leading to the blue dragon snapping. "Let me think about it, okay?!" Before turning away and staring back at the city, apparently thinking deeply.

Erudis hears the frustration in Arcantos' voice and adds, "I can look at it sometime if you'd like, perhaps I can remember something else."

Piasa holds up his forearms in front of him, his palms extended outward in a show of peace. "I apologize, Arcantos. That was rude of me. Think on it as long as needed."

"Thanks kid, that should help." Arcantos said after a short while, before turning back to the cloaked llama. "I don't like this, and I don't like you, but if I don't believe in allowing a group to split. Your help better be worth the effort this takes."

"Alright, you all decided then?  Run along, you don't have all day!  Well, I guess you do- but still, the sooner you get done the sooner we can catch those griffons of yours!"

"My help most certainly is worth the effort it will take." he pouts.  "Especially if my estimates of the effort it will take you to complete my task are correct."

"These negotiations have sure been exhausting.  See you back up here when you're done!"  he calls after you as you descend back to the city.  If you look back, he's already disappeared.

Once they headed back to the city, Arcantos angled down to land, saying. "If its alright with you two, I want to land. Carrying the skull is getting a little annoying, and we need to decide which temple to go to first."

"No problem. As far as which temple to go to, I don't know. Would there be large differences between the two temples?"

Piasa follows Arcantos down to land, when Chaska spoke up. 'She has a good point. Any differences in the temples would not be insignificant. What did my elder's say about the sun and moon again?'

For now, Arcantos ignored the others when he landed. Carefully examining the skull, wanting to know if it was possible to place it over his head like the gryphon priest did. Holding it in his hands was getting rather... counter productive.
