Beat around the bush

You hesitate for a moment, not sure if you should tell him the truth or try to lie your way out of it. "I'm sorry my lord, I don't know what you're talking about." You say, trying to stall for time.

Sotha Sil just looks at you for a few minutes, showing no expression but it's obvious that he already knew the truth, given that he is a god. "I see, well then I suppose we'll have to start from the beginning." He sighs and then has you sit down before beginning to examine you more closely. "What were you really imprisoned for?"

You look down when he asks again, knowing that it was a bad idea to lie to a god, "I was caught stealing food from the market, Your Grace. I was just hungry." You reply, your stomach growling slightly at the mention of food.

Sotha Sil shook his head a little, "When you're here, Nevaari, food is bought with your obedience and truth."
