Can we ask terms and conditions before we make a choice?
So like, be on he defensive so we don’t get attacked, but still negotiate?

The only one even close to dying is Formerfish and he still has healing grace. We have a pretty good chance of taking out the slime this turn so Szyme would have to attack him twice to kill (and he's at a checkpoint level so very little loss even if he dies).
With what we know it should be almost completely safe to continue the fight.
So mostly a matter of roleplay and/or getting something out of it. So yeah, I'd say see what the terms are.

Hm. So Szyme says that they would not trouble us longer.
Can a cultist like them be trusted?
And even if, they could just tell their fellow cultists what happened/warn them and we then face them all - and we won't be able to survive against a horde of these cultists. At least not until much later.

If you accept, he promises to leave and never mess with you or other adventurers in the Cave of Slimes ever again.
If you reject, the battle continues as before.
He has no intention of joining your side.

Hmm.
I really don’t think Szyme is in any position to not negotiate here. If we kill him, he won’t be able to bother anyone ever again either.
I say we kill the son of a gun.

That's the terms of surrender?
So we could easily have to battle them again later, outside of the Cave.
He could also report to the other cultists...
He could be lying...
Cultist Szyme grumbles seeing that the group of Murderhobos do not intend to accept his offer. "Fine! In addition to not bothering anyone, I'll throw in some money in as well. You'll never find it if you kill me!" Note: He refuses to disclose the exact amount of money he is offering, but as a cultist, he should be pretty rich.

Okay, now he’s appealing to our base instincts. Fantastic.
I say we take a vote, using vote tags of course. I’ll keep track, since I’m in charge and should be doing something useful for once. :p VOTE: Attack

I’m for taking money.
Not that I want the money, but I’d rather not have to kill if necessary.
However, we should not just “let him go.” If he surrenders, he has to remain with us until he pays us off.
Also, maybe we should look to David for information? They seem to have a past.
