You wouldn't have to put in that allowance if you didn't universally punish Paladins for lying in the first place.

Is it really a lie? Paraphrasing, it's like 'Let me take care of her because she's too dangerous for you.' Nowhere do you say 'I will kill her because like you I think all Githyanki are evil,' but that meaning could easily be inferred.

Should that line even be tagged [Deception]??
