<div class="floatright">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/b/b3/Alyssa.jpg)</div><strong>Alyssa</strong>(http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=91076)<br/><hr/><br/>Alyssa listened to the audacious hybrid in front of her without lowering her weapon.  She was relaxed though and it was totally defensive.  She wasn't going to be the aggressor here.  She gave Thalya a chance to speak since she had already given her own answer and didn't want to put words in the sorceress's mouth.<br/><br/>So when Thalya agreed to his request, Alyssa finally lowered her sword.  She didn't think the satyr would attack now.  "There you go.  You have your answer.  My trusted companion has consented to your request.  I hope it is satisfactory to you and you will lead us to our friend."  While Alyssa may have begrudgingly accepted his offer if she had been alone and it was the only guaranteed way to get to Norton, there was very little chance she would have done it with two of her sailors there.  She had a reputation to protect.  Luckily Thalya had decided to come along and also had agreed to his terms.  He may have wanted both of them, but she doubted he would refuse the offer and risk walking away empty handed.
