"Just like... whichever option you'd feel the most comfortable with."

“…Nngh. Maybe Serphia does have her uses” Liaena mumbled finally as she stared at Malizia, pondering the dilemma in her head. “Okay. Okay, use the cuffs. We have a house of Night Elves, and she’s disarmed. We only have one counterspeller, and I’m not bringing her in here”

The High Elf nodded, before crouching over to bend the Draenei’s arms behind her and fit the cuffs on. Liaena watched silently, before clearing her throat slightly to voice what was weighing on her mind. “Maybe Rithrynn’s better off out of it for a while”

“What?”

Sharon turned slightly, to give her a quizzical look. Liaena sagged slightly, to sit down quite heavily on one of the upturned crates in the room looking very tired all of a sudden. 

“She was with Sherpa the night before last. Remember? And I don’t think she was under any sort of spell, or drug. She seemed…lucid, when I spoke to her about it. Relatively speaking”

The girl studied the floor as she spoke, with a carefully composed touch to her voice. “I don’t understand what he’s done, or offered her, but she seems to be under the impression he is misunderstood, and cares for her. Which is a problem, because Rithrynn is a moron that is easily manipulated. While this [b]brainless, careless, nonsense[/b] is going on….I don’t think that we can trust her”

By the end of her speech, the girl’s composure was slightly rocked by the bite in her final words. Glaring a hole in the stone floor, Liaena became aware that Sharon was giving her a look of concern. “You would rather leave her…?”

“…No, no…I’ll get her out of Serphia. Literally. I owe her that much, at least” Liaena said flatly. 

“I’ll make sure she doesn’t do any damage while this thing with Sherpa is ongoing. And after that…I suppose she’ll be leaving with Serphia’s lot anyway, which makes life easier.”

Glancing up, Liaena finally met Sharon’s eyes to give him an only slightly forced smile. “Anyway, not really the priority right now. Shall I wake up that Death Knight?”
