This is exhausting. You are all exhausting, with your constant need for food and water and not dying.

I could use a break. There are too many monsters in the caves, and keeping them in takes more of my power than I'd like. If you'd be so kind as to kill a few for me, I can offer you rewards in return, including some blessings. Besides, I'm sure you have some anger to work out after Fear's ridiculous stunt with the coffins.

And if anyone has any suggestions as to how I could conserve some power, I'd appreciate it. You don't need to eat every day, do you? That seems excessive.

While I am not one to answer to the call of self proclaimed deities, I do think it within our best interest to oblige Hope's request. That is, if he is unable to keep such beasts adequately at bay, there are scarce other options to which we may yet turn to.

[And while that may have come out a little somber at the start, Haurchefant is quick to pep up! Smiling as he gestures with his hands as he speaks.]

With that said, I say the best course of action would be to form small groups of capable warriors and to fell what beasts we can around the city's perimeter. T'would prove beneficial to not only Hope, but to each of us! If we may be able to prevent a larger catastrophe through this end, then I say we should embark down this path!

Who of you are with me? Of course, those of you who are not quite so skilled with combat need not feel pressured to join. Scant do I wish to endanger any who might not be capable against such horrid beasts.

Come my friends, and together we may yet preserve what peace we are yet able within this city!
