Sagant couldn't help but stare for a long moment at Kriess with genuine curiosity. For all the armor he wore, the shields on his back, he was quite a dexterous fellow, keeping several objects in the air at once. This, probably for show, included a knife, which impressed the goblin somewhat. He shook his head and snagged the apple from the man, taking a bite out of it before taking stock of what happened. Chara, apparently, had been busy being herself. Or himself, that was still up in the air by the look of it. Kimi, the healer of the group, was working some innocent conversational magic to gather some information from the mother, all while rejecting payment.
He sighed audibly, the girl's actions betraying his dog eat dog mentality.
"We need every edge we can get, Kimi!" He berated, dropping his tone to a mere mumble afterwards.
"As underhanded as accepting payment from an old woman is..." The eyes in his head rolled with sarcasm, returning to the sweep of the party.
Reed was on his way to the mother as well, hopefully he would pick up where the healer had left off, discussing payment and the like. Instead, he gave the group a task to find the boy before he was gone for good, causing the goblin to shake his head in disappointment. He bit into his apple again and stalked on over to the pair, wedging himself between them.
"These two may be on board for good will, but I'll need something to make it worth my time, ma'am. Rule of life, if you're good at something, never do it for free." The light caught the blue gem hanging from his right ear while he spoke, honeying his words while he awaited a response from the woman. Sure, it was dirty to nickle and dime an old woman, but Sagant wasn't the most moral of beings.
