What do you do?
Attempt to seduce him
Seduce Koorips? It is a revolting thought considering his affiliation and deeds, but it might be your best bet for survival. You answer his question about the elves of Elohin by speaking in vague terms about the lord of Elohin. You know there are nine elven houses that rule during the magical slumber of the elf king. Because he is not dead there can be no heir, so by covenant each house rules for a decade and then permits another house to rule.
As you are speaking Koorips studies you and you study him. His bald head is daubed with red stain and his face is covered in it, making his teeth and eyes stand out brightly against the red. His is not ugly, but his long, stoney face is not welcoming. He has heavy, drooping eyelids that rarely blink and a mouth that betrays no smile or grimace. He is fat, but powerful, with broad shoulders and powerful muscles hidden under a layer of drooping flesh. He wears a loincloth, though you cannot see it while sitting at the table, and in between sips of berry wine he toys with the finger bone necklace around his neck or the strange pale flowers hanging in strings over his slightly drooping chest.
For lack of detail of your elven lords you blurt the only name you remember from your history lessons - Oakenwise - and say that you serve his house and he can be a demanding master. Steaming plates arrive including a stew, heaps of jungle rice, cooked flower petals, and a generous portion of pork loin. You feel a bit lightheaded from the wine and you are fammished. The pork falls from the bone and is seasoned to perfection. You spear steaming chunks and swallow them greedily. Koorips smiles at this.
Koorips asks what your duties are for the Oakenwise house and you explain first your emissary duties as you imagine them and then begin to hint at other chores you perform around the house, for him and his two sons and even his eldest daughter. You layer your description with words like "luscious" and "stimulating" and "juicy" and marvel at the flavor and "meatiness" of the pork.
"Perhaps some more wine?" Koorips suggests and snaps his fingers, summoning wugs to refill your cup.
After the meal you sit beside him on a mud balcony on the second floor. It looks out across the village. You begin to flatter him, complimenting his flowers, and reaching out to touch his necklace. You are so drunk you forget those are human fingerbones.
Koorips seems amused more than aroused by your increasingly **** flirtation. He leans back in his chair, a bit of grease on his lips, and watches as you toy with his necklace. You set the necklace back against his chest you let your fingers drag across his chest hair and over his nipple. His dark eyes twinkle as he watches you. He says nothing.
If you are going to seduce him you are going to have to draw a sharper sword. Perhaps suggest you retire to his bedchamber? Or do something right there on the balcony, but what? How far are you willing to go, how hard are you willing to push, in order to save yourself?
What do you do?
