They've left him alone in his cell.
He can't really be said to be lucid but he has very acute instincts for when there's someone and when he's alone - it's the last of his senses to depart him - and he's alone.
And then suddenly he isn't.

Well, I teleported the kobold back to Lake Mithrim. Dunno if that helps but it isn't like I was gonna not do it.

He was injured but people can fetch him out, sing some healing songs. Yell at him for being such an idiot.

...backrub. Tentatively at first, then firmer if he doesn't object. Do you want to go home for a bit after lunch, make sure they're okay?
Nidela
Good.
She's pretty good at backrubs; she keeps going.
Did you get the stuff traded, or should I go tell the library we'll be an extra day?
Nidela
They're pretty tasty salads. The delivery elf asks if they need anything else and then goes about his day.
Nidela
Book-buying. They have copies of all of them except the advanced spell tricks book, the human/elven drug comparison, and one of the two recent history books; they also don't have any lower-quality copies of the intermediate cat care book, and Nidela checks again whether Tyelkormo thinks they should get it - they can afford it, with the three missing ones out of the budget, but that's really a lot of money to spend on something they might not ever use.
hastyriser
Well, it's not like they're doing anything else with the money. Honestly he doesn't fully get the concept of money. They presumably cannot instead use it to pay off the guards to let kobolds go or anything?
Nidela
...bribing people to do things is something money is used for, yes, though she's not sure how and bribing them to let kobolds go seems pretty implausible, especially all the kobolds.
The other thing she was planning on using money for was buying seeds; they can buy the book without touching the money she was planning on using for that, but if they don't, they can buy a lot more seeds, or fancier ones, or small plants instead for some of them.
