Gryphon lowers his right arm and opens his eyes again once he finally receives Maugrim’s reply. Well at least the old man is still alive. I wonder if it really is Karnath that’s got him...

The wizard waits for Arimart, his verbose counterpart, and the married couple to stop speaking to report what he’d learned. If this gnome wants a Maugrim update then she can take a deep breath and let her pulse drop about 20 points. I’m not going to try and match a hummingbird’s energy.

When the others make aural room for him, Gryphon speaks in an unhurried manner. He’s alive, it turns out. Coherence is hardly his forte, but he believes he knows who has captured him. Perhaps you’d prefer me to reveal just whom he’s accused in a more... private location?
