Huh, quotes because they are speaking in-character. That works. Looks odd, but I suppose it's clearer. I'm pretty sure that's what Dan wanted.

I, too, would expect Rich's paladin to know something about the scope and kind of evil that the sacrifice pointed to. But his answer is not unreasonable.

He's not being obstructionist, it doesn't seem. But, I also don't see that the story is advancing in this comic.

George's conclusion does not make sense. The red flag is the intended sacrifice that they already know about. Going into the mine does not change this. What new red flag is George alluding to?

A further speculative thought, George and Larry are, in Rich's eyes, taking on the role of being 'the jerks' who have harassed him in the past when he ran games, nitpicking his play. He seems a bit stressed by the interaction. It is probably significant that neither girl has jumped in to chew on him.
