"I spoke the truth before, and the spell ensures that I'm doing the same now. I will not kill you so long as you are not a threat. However, you killed the Chieftain of these Lizardfolk; they have the right to seek retribution for that. We would thus need a very good reason to ask the Lizardfolk to refrain from exacting punishment upon you. I would like to strongly encourage you to give us that very good reason, and wisecracks are not going to help your case.

"Now, then, you'd better elaborate, and do it quickly because you only have until the spell runs out to ensure your survival. What kind of portal, where did it come from, and why did you use it? Did you know where it would lead? Did you know who created it?"
