Askr siezes the moment and casts his spell in the midst of the confusion.
Charm Person, will DC 15 Onyx will save +2 [dice=20]
Opposed Charisma check Askr @ 23 Onyx @[dice=20]+3
Onyx looks in Askr's direction, nodding to the man as if he had known him all his life.
He addresses the orcs standing in front of Ana.
(IN ORCISH)
"Filthy liars. Give me the money."
Askr warns the others nearby to him not to make any attacks upon Onyx, as his spell seems to have taken effect.
The two orcs look surprised, but nonetheless, they retreat back toward Onyx and hand him the bag.
Inits, Orcs 1-4, Ana, Askr, Onyx, Garor
next round, Askr and Ana still have actions before Onyx gets to look into the bag for himself. He will find a bunch of metal scraps and likely be furious. Any actions before this happens, or do you continue to wait. [rand=1836860189935245597014727600373268970793314222223033444774650753906]

Ana gestures for Askr to join her up front. Thinking quickly, she puzzles over how to explain the nature of the bag. "That bag holds nothing of value, Onyx - I thought you might try to demand payment, rather than negotiate. The true prize is hidden. If you want it, release the prisoners." Hopefully Askr will pick up on his role in these negoiations, since Onyx is still unlikely to listen to her.

Garor simply stands, growing increasingly uneasy.

Askr hits shakes his head. He had wanted to take the conversation a different route, not the one Ana was taking it. He was trying to get Onyx angry at his subordinates, trying to make it seem they were planning on taking the money, which would have worked out well with what was in the bag. He stood there listening to Ana trying to see a way to connect the two stories, trying to find a way to make it all make sense.
Knowing he had to speak he quickly began without having enough time to formulate a true plan, "My dear friend Onyx. These Orcs knew that there would be nothing in the bag. They were going to hold onto it as if they had collected the real money then at nightfall they'd sneak back in for the real prize. They told us, if we didn't cooperate with them, they'd kill us. They are your true enemy. Please, for both our sakes you must attack them before they attack you!"
He hoped his plea would be enough, and he hoped it worked. Only time would tell.
