OOC: come now, nobody really expected Sean to keep his mouth shut around the
elves, did they? ;-)

Sean *asks* Holly to transmit any information Carandolana is willing to share
about Ezanus's lair. He also *asks* Holly to forward to the party that Cizvar
wants to go on a dragon hunt, and Sean is going to accommodate him. He *asks*
her to relay that he has no plan and is not asking anyone to come along if they
would rather not.
Sean tells Cizvar that we'll go hunting in two days. He tells Agatha to get
ready to go boot shopping. And he'll spend the following day preparing,
including telling Ahearn of the hunt. Near the end of the day tomorrow, he
will introduce himself to the elven delegation. He hopes Holly will be
monitoring the communication. "Greetings Count Lazziar, I am Sean Marley
March. While I am sure you have been welcomed before, please allow me to
extend my personal welcome, and thank you for and the Lady for treating with
us. While I have no official position within Lord Hagar's court, beyond,
perhaps his chief scout and perpetual uncomfortable wild card, perhaps I can
answer any questions you may have that have yet to have been answered. I
believe Lord Hagar has expressed a desire for closer cooperation betwixt your
people and our community. While no merchant myself, I would like to see our
community act as intermediary between your people and the wider world, who,
even now, remain largely unaware of your presence and unappreciative of your
good will. With your Lady's permission, we would bring you such goods and
services as you might not have in your realm, and, through us, we could bring
to the wider world the boons and produce of your realm. In the arena of
security, we could offer a mutual support treaty. Your people would always be
welcome here, come what may. As for my personal wishes, as I am sure you have
been made aware by the Lady Tiriana and her most august priestess of Artor,
priestess Namys Loraydark, I seek any information you may have been authorized
to share regarding the ancient dragon known as Ezanus the Evergreen. It is my
understanding that your people have something of a curious detente with the
wyrm. He has harassed our community, and it is my intent to determine whether
we can also form an uneasy detente with the creature, or whether we will be
forced to eliminate him, understanding the delicate and complicated balance of
interests which must be considered."
