-A Deal on Ice

Ice Fist turned away from the lunars who acted as his "councillors" and the one who is his daughter. He casually trampled a few of the surviving supporters of the councillors, some froze solid as he passed, and several of the goat men got actively stamped into an icy paste as he took out his displeasure on them. The Llama riders, being mounted, generally escaped with better grace than the goat men and the servants to the councillors, though some of Gerendtho's sons used their odd magic to escape successfully.
Members of the Rass hero band were scattered around the chamber, fighting, injured, frozen or worse.

Ice Fist swung his massive head around in the general direction of the center of the Heroes who still stood. He paused, staring with an icy glare at you all. His voice boomed out like glacial ice falling into the sea:  "You! Shall I crush you into floor decorations, or will you serve me as my bound slaves?"  Garusharp spoke up clearly while everyone else hesitated before the ice giant's might. "Ice fist, father of the cold bleak winter, I, Garusharp Banaru stands before your splendor and say to you… We, who just drove your enemy before you to do with as you please do not find your terms acceptable, we are a band of brothers who would be your eyes to see your enemies and to hurl them before you in chains. We would be your weapon against the Blood Moon as we have sworn to Eiritha. We have a common enemy, we must work together to crush them, but we will not be your slaves in this venture. Your anger has burned your sight and you do not see what instruments lay before you. We would serve you to stamp out this evil, but not as slaves. We would take your oath, but not as slaves. We would shed their blood, but not as slaves. We serve others including the White Bull, but not as slaves. We will not be thus to you.  "Great anger who’s heart can freeze a world I have not withered from your frightful presence and will not be intimidated by it either. Find others to enslave, look elsewhere to your enemy , for we are not and will not be your slave. "
