-I saw nothing, strange, which indicates to me that they are either very foolish, or they are inviting us in, and I think it is the latter.
I really feared the latter too, Elric was a born strategist, and a much better warrior according to his legend. So it was likely that this was all a trap, but we couldn't just stand by and do nothing.
