Talk with-a Tom

As the group made their way towards to lake to find this seemingly unknown island Big Al hurried over to the shadows where he could talk to Tom, without drawing attention.

"If-a I may be so-a bold, I would-a like to propose a trade of-a some sort. If-a my Prozia, the Sheriff, is-a to be trusted... my-a life is in danger. Being that-a you are a such a creature that-a can conceal themselves... I was-a wondering if you could-a teach me to do the same."

He paused and made a glance towards Tom looking for any sign to either stop, or continue speaking. When he felt it was safe he continued.

"I would-a be willing to offer-a you skills of my own. Perhaps you would-a like to move-a faster, or perhaps see beyond-a your current limits."

He stared at the ground and shook his head.

"I-a know I'm asking-a for a lot... but really I would-a like to not-a die a second time just-a yet."
