She ran her tongue over her fangs as she moved from one foot to the other, flinching only slightly at the alien thought, more than used to his invasive communication. Contemplating what would come out of her mouth, she let her guard down as her mind wandered. "I trust him to do this, of course but is doing this in the first place the right decision..? All signs point to it being so but what if.." At this moment she realized she had let her guard slip and she halted her thoughts as she threw up her mental walls again.
She sighed, running her fingers through her tangled hair, left down to her knees whilst at sea. "We have spotted an enemy pirate ship. We have been watching it as they have been watching us. We could either go in and take their loot and slaughter their crew or..." She paused for dramatic effect, more to irritate her impatient old friend than anything else. "We could board their ship, kill the captain and whoever else opposes and allow you to take over the ship."
"With more ships, we could easily circle the coastlines and keep seafarers under our thumbs but with just one, our reign of terror can only be spread so far. Fit every ship with those new inventions of the Connolathians, cannons, and put people as ruthless as you and me in charge and everyone will learn to fear our names!"
