Linda's guards promptly and silently return to her side after delivering the messages. She even returns Synys' wave since she is paying attention and listening to the conversation despite preferring to stay still at the moment and thus out of polite conversation range. Which means she hears everything, including the pet comment. Of course with the distance between them this first sign of how poorly that is received is a small stone striking Jules in the head. Linda seems rather angry about it. The skeletons are all standing with relaxed postures though. Including the recuperated Blackscale skeleton.<br/><br/>Trying to claim someone who commands a nigh unkillable beast that could probably tear people to shreds in short order like that is likely a very, very bad idea. On top of the armed guards and how dangerous the woman herself is.
