Octopus Diplomat decides to make first contact - demands we surrender
Oh I'm sorry, Mr. "Dingo, James Dingo", you're far too late to stop our plans. Lucky for you, dingo meat is rather stringy and a bit too gamey for most of our tastes.
"Begun, these Calamari Wars have."
Octopus: do you accept the Law of Asmodeus and the principle of Order?
If so, than you are welcome to stay, creature.
{sips mimosa} Hmmm. Octopi see Law and Chaos as two ways of describing filtered perceptions of the Whole. I'm not familiar with any particular principal name Mr./Mrs. Order, but my college dean, J. R. "Bob" Dobbs, was a nice enough chap.
Okey dokey.
By the way, have you ever considered trading in your horsie for one of those two-wheeled thingamabobs from Numeria, and your lance for that new Lawgiver line from Alkenstar? You've got the attitude to Make It Work.
But if you meet an annoying halfling name Srob Chneider, don't take him on as a Cohort. Please. Kill. Him. Immediately.
