At this point I'm starting to come around to just dealing with the consequences of slaughtering everyone in the temple and being done with this crap. I would be writing a vote up to that effect if we had more people with us.

The party that slays together stays together.
Which is probably a good part of the reason why IC they asked you to come in with less men.
I'm getting super tired of them acting as if we owe them explanations, we should make it clear that our choices are our own and we don't owe them anything nor do they have any authority over us.
Edit:
[] Attempt to defend your connection to Esha (Diplomacy)
-[] to put it quite simply, the vampire has been more polite, helpful, and much less insulting than the lot of you. and I certainly want to kill her much less than I do you.
edit 2: for the record, I'm sticking with my vote but I don't think this winning is a good idea, it almost assuredly would result in a fight and us becoming outlaws IF we survive. removed the X so they don't count.

Well they have the authority of being associated with one of the most powerful temples in the city and you are strange... well strangers with no friends to speak of in the city.
but we have steel and men and at the end of the day, that's the only thing that matters. And sure, they have more of both but I'm confident that right now we could bring ours to bear better than them.
edit:
also, we sure af are not lawful.

just warning you I slightly changed the wording of my vote.

I refuse to look for a fight now, in the center of their power.
They are perfectly sensible in being worried, if after all we are indeed traveling in a hungry ship with a half vampire.
We can fix this easily. We haven't seen her commit any atrocity, and simply as a victim of her father. We saved her and she helped us.
Why should we act in any other way?

[X] Done with this shit...
-[X] "I suppose you would simply leave a helpless stranger to die of thirst and exposure, alone and afraid on the open sea?"
-[X] "Perhaps we should have slit Esha's throat after she shared knowledge of what hunted her, warned us of the danger posed by her father?"
--[X] "Or would it have been better to end her after she fought alongside my men and I to destroy the monster that sired her?"
-[X] "We do not treat our allies as trash to be discarded and we do not betray them due to the unfortunate circumstances of their birth. And we certainly do not leave our men to the...hospitality...of those who would."
--[X] "You have your answers. We'll be going now."

Without sarcasm this would be acceptable. We want them in a good disposition so that they leave us alone and we can divine the skull of that fey

I do not think this temple, in this time and place, is where we should be asking about the skull, especially not with these asshats around. They'll probably think we are up to nefarious shit.

They came here with the firsthand account of a drunken peasant cook.
I would think the same as them
then I suggest you propose your own plan because right now all of them involve telling them to go fuck themselves in one way or another.

I trimmed out a bit of the sarcasm, if that helps.

[ ] Attempt to defend your connection to Esha (Diplomacy)
-[ ] Tell about mystery ship found in the True Sea, about women in the sack, about strange heppening aboard, decision to release her, revelation about vetala and the fight with vampire. Tell that you do not betray allies, and Esha can not be accused due to circumstances of her birth.
I am very bad with write-ins, but this is a temperal measure to resist the murderhobo mood in the thread. We are good guys here, not them. We can handle it without bloodshed.

Guys, we don't need to devolve into murderhobos okay? Nothing good will come out of trying to kill them.
[X] Attempt to defend your connection to Esha (Diplomacy)
-[X] Tell of the circumstances that led to us finding Esha, learning of her nature as a Dhampir, that her father used her as bait for travellers on the sea, and that she and the whole crew worked together to kill her vetala father.
-[X] We trust her enough as an ally and she should not be persecuted because of the circumstances of her birth.
-[X] Also, we have been collecting magical things to better protect ourselves from this world's perils and to seek a better understanding of magic.
