Uldran's eyes flick over to Talnin, in a I have no idea what's the right answer kind of way.
Considering he is already on extremely thin ice, he is hoping that Talnin catches his drift and answers for him. Last thing they need is for this to get any worse.
Uldran steps out of the shadows, hands raised. He REALLY didn't want the situation to get any worse than it was.
"I'm sorry, " he says softly. "I just wanted to make sure we had a bit of protection in case you weren't willing to listen. We truly mean you no harm."
Uldran went from feeling hopeless to skeptical. Talnin was coming across and genuine. He also hadn't been killed yet. Although he wasn't sure which was a bigger point in his favor.
That being said, Uldran didn't move from his spot. He generated a bit more mana, enough to buy them some time if everything went south. At least, that's what he hopes.
"And I would never kill in cold blood. It tastes terrible." chuckling to himself quietly. He would have to tell Talnin that one, Uldran's sure he would appreciate it.
When Talnin began heading out with the akki, Uldran thought momentarily of stopping him.
However, he quickly realized that they didn't really have any better options, so he followed behind, but far enough so that he wouldn't interrupt Talnin's plan.
The realization that this was their best shot made him shake his head though. He wasn't thrilled with their position.
Unsure of what to do, Uldran cloaks himself and hides in the shadows, generating a bit of mana just in case.
"This better work you crazy human." he mutters under his breath.
Uldran cocked his head to the side a bit. He was a lot more sedate than the other one, and Uldran started to lose the little bit of hope he had that they stumbled onto the right goblin.
He looked over at the akki quick, then back to Talnin. "I believe you to be correct." He nods, "But, where do we go from here then?"
OOC: Were we ever given a timeframe for how long the goblin has been on Kamigawa for? To the point where, "A while." could even come close, or did he get over the day before we left Greels?
Uldran is wondering about something, and confers with Talnin and Eavath about it. "Hey, did either of you get a good look at this 'boss'? Maybe he is the one we want?"
Leaving them to ponder the idea, Uldran walks over to the goblin. "So, how long has this Boss of yours been around?" he trails off.
"I would answer quickly goblin..." Uldran suggests, rather menacingly. He pulls out his dagger, shows the goblin his fangs, and mutters, "I'm getting hungry."
Witnessing Talnin prevent the fire spells from killing Eaveth's griffin, Uldran conceded to him a bit. Maybe that pesky white magic has its uses... he thinks to himself, knowing that if there was another one of him that they would all be dead right now.
As the griffins fly deeper into the mountains, Uldran doesn't feel more comfortable with their new locale. The only thing that relieves him is the fact that the mob has stopped.
"Goblins taste roughly like what you humans would call 'horse piss'" Uldran yells back to him. He hangs on tighter as the griffins speed up to get to the exit.
Maybe there is something beyond this human than complete naivete.

"I'm sorry, " he says softly. "I just wanted to make sure we had a bit of protection in case you weren't willing to listen. We truly mean you no harm."
"Fine!" Uldran stubbornly admits, and releases his mana. However, he is still watching over Talnin, just in case something goes wrong.
EDIT: Oh, dear

Uldran glares at the akki, then walks over and slips off the gag just a bit, enough so that the muffled noises can become vague words.
"Spill it." he commands, again as intimidating as his bright red eyes will allow.

He shot a glance at him, yelling, "TALNIN! THAT"S YOURS!"
