Thalion puts his hand on the half-giant, and whispers to Vindsval as he passes beside him, "Hold on to that for now master Vindsval, this appears to be nothing more than a shakedown."

Having moved forward, he addresses the wight, using diplomacy, "And why do you need those essences, prey tell us!?"

It would seem you were correct my friend.

If you truly have no need for the essence than i see no reason to pay you such a steep price.  For we often have great need of them.  One Vial for all is all I am willing to offer you. And a generous off is it not?

"Its not about the vials, it about the principle of things; what gives you the right to ask anything out of anyone? You will not be getting anything from me, so let us pass or we will be forced to remove you from the pass!" As he said that, Thalion created a small, but visible, flame orb in the palm of his hand.

We value all Life Force.  Even that which we may be forced to take.  But we are experienced in this world.  The Path we walk often leads to our own falling and those small vials allow us to work for greater good.  Again, I offer you and your companions one vial, but I can spare no more, nor does it seem, would my companions.  Please do not force our hand in this.  He finishes diplomatically as he can, Phoenix essence still in hand.

So sorry for not being around, guys. We had no electricity over the weekend and our generator had problems as well. I think I should be able to post more faithfully now, and I'll still try to solve the puzzle when I have time.
