[Nephrite]

"Is there a second offer if this one ends up being rejected?" Moore asks.

[Anastasia]

Not even a blink at that, "There is," she agrees, "Do you wish to hear it?"

[Nephrite]

"Please." Moore says.

[Anastasia]

"A proposal to permanently adjust the political landscape of the City of Brass," Is the answer you get. "That the current Grand Sultan's reign may be close to an end."

[Nephrite]

Moore, thankfully, is able to keep his composure from this.

"All right." He says with a nod.

Let's invoke that power again. I get 5 more, so I may as well use them!

[Anastasia]

The question you get is, 'What did Akil bin Faheem promise you to ensure your silence regarding this offer?'

[Nephrite]

Mm, that may not get an answer....

He looks considerate for a moment. "This is a serious matter. If you're a truly neutral party, you must've been given something or promised something to keep silent about it. In the interests of open fairness, I would like to know what that was."

[Anastasia]

"I was." Your answer is simple and to the point, "What business of it is yours to inquire about?"

[Nephrite]

"This is not a light matter to be dealing in, for any party." Moore says, simply. "I think it a fair thing to ask, considering I am being expected to accept that these offers are being made in good faith."

[Anastasia]

Through the power of nosy dragon magic, you managed to say the right thing. Give me a diplo check.

[Nephrite]

Take 10 for 105. :)

[Anastasia]

"Access to a..." A moment's pause, "A family member who chose to follow a darker path of commerce than Waukeen."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods. "Thank you for your honesty."

Take 10 on Sense Motive for 67 to just try and make sure he's not being bullshitted.

Also, using another part of the magic of Wit to see if there are any good questions to ask.

[Anastasia]

You don't think she's lying.

The question you get next is simple: 'Are there any signs the devils are helping him?'

[Nephrite]

"Are you allowed to tell me if you think there are any signs the devils are helping him with this?" Moore asks.
