Questions for the Kobald?

Questions for the Kobald?
Who's the leader of the neighboring city up ahead? (The one Gareth detected with his spell)

Who normally comes to collect Kobald's?

Where do they take them?

What are they used for?

How long has this town/ghetto been established?

Which way to Melg/Orcish Empire?

What's the name of the current Orcish Emperor?

Gareth detected this large area where the Kobolds are and then a number of towns to the east.  Which are you referring to?

He looks confused.

He seems to have trouble understanding this question.

I remember you describing a large city or metropolis setting off in the distance in fake Yellowia after Gareth cast his spell, but maybe I'm mistaken.

There were a numbers of towns in 'fake Yellowia' none were a large city.  You can ask about one of those.

I don't think it's going to matter what I ask.  I'm pretty sure the answer is "I am Groot."

If Yoshi would like to ask his Divinations on the boards that would save time in game.

If Yoshi would like to ask his Divinations on the boards that would save time in game.
This would be the Divination spell (https://dndtools.net/spells/players-handbook-v35--6/divination--3543/ (https://dndtools.net/spells/players-handbook-v35--6/divination--3543/). We get one question “concerning a specific goal, event, or activity that is to occur within one week.” 80% chance to successfully get a piece of useful advice in a format that can be a direct or cryptic. I will know if it fails.

Since I only have enough materials to do this once, I’ll ask the group for input on the question before casting. To lead off discussion, I propose: “How do we safely return to Melg in the Orcish Empire on the main continent of Habololy in our appropriate place in the timeline?”

Feedback and suggestions welcome. I would hope we don’t have to worry about deliberate misinformation or trickery in response since Yoshi is a cleric asking his deity for advice to support a mission that the Old Orc wants to be successful. Unless of course the gopher of lost knowledge is interfering.

Will the Oldest Orc actually be interfering?  Or will he just sit back and watch?

Gareth whispers to Akra- “Ask if Harl is their leader”?

Laughs at Gareth..  " No if Haarl was the leader, he wouldn't be hiding behind half truths and lies.. it's not his style.  And .. you say his name with a growl in the middle.. not HARL.. like a common man.. it's HAARL.. "

Gareth looks very confused. “So you’re not going to ask because . . . No, I can’t come up with any way to complete that thought.”

Gareth turns to the Kobold. “Do you speak Common?  If not, anyone around who does?”  I offer him a silver piece.

He shakes his head *no* but replies in what sounds to you like Horarian.

That seems like a very well worded questions to get what we want.
