He will also call out useless combat advice to

The Dragon Hoard

Talantha’s hoard consists of the following –

 3540cp
 570sp
 220gp
 Jade bird cage (worth 50gp)
 9 tiger eye gems (worth 10gp each)
 A gold scarab worth (110gp)
 A 200-year-old bottle of elven wine from
the Rosedale vineyard (worth 190gp)
 2 potions of healing
 Potion of strength
 +2 shield, white with a green cross

Conclusion
If Glubnose survives, he will honor whatever
deal he made with the PCs. The only exception
would be if the party were severely weakened
during the battle (for example, if most of the
PCs died). In that case he would feel free to
change the terms to suit himself.
