"No, I don't," Seith agreed with Eragon and then shifted her eyes to Nasuada. The leader of Varden's tried to hide her discomfort. Something was going on and she didn't have any control over it. It almost felt like something important was slipping through her fingers and she hated such a feeling. A deep frown appeared on her face and she looked away. Seith didn't want to go against her because she sensed power from the dark skinned woman. A power that was immense for such a young creature. Few moments past before Nasuada regarded them with a discontented look.
"I am not satisfied with the way that such an important information can't be told aloud in here," Nasuada started and the frown once more returned. "However, Eragon and Saphira have my full support and faith," after taking a deep breath in, she continued, "for I have to believe you as well," her face didn't ease at all. It was like the words, Nasuada was saying, were poison that she was spitting out.
"But no matter how much I believe in the dragon and rider, I want you to give me your oath of loyality. That way, I will be sure that you do not mean us any harm,"after this exclamation Seith expression stiffened. Yes, she half expected it but hoped that assurance from Eragon would be enough to let her stay in the camp. Seith tightened her grip on the staff. It was only a little movement that couldn't have been seen by anyone else than Saphira. Nasuada and Seith were looking into one another's eyes for a long time. It almost looked like the match of mages when they were trying to seize the mind of their opponent. However, Seith was the first one who broke the connection. She lowered her head and a sad smile formed on her face.
"Leader of Varden," she started with a voice full of regret and sorrow, "I can't give you my oath of loyality for that would be only one-way assurance for me. However, I can give you an oath that I will speak the truth in terms of my mission here and that throughtout my stay in your camp I will not cause any harm to you nor to any of your soldiers," it was the best that Seith could come up with. It still bound her more than she would like. Knowing that the first part of her oath would collide with the one she gave to dragons, Seith had to think of a different way how to present the information without braking any of her promises. However, elves were always good with beating around the bush so it shouldn't be that big problem. After Seith's answer Nasuada obviously considered her proposal but still wasn't quite satisfied with it.
"You will give me that oath of yours but before you will let Blodhgram to search you memories so that we will know for sure that your oath will be true," Nasuada's voice was firm again. She didn't like when someone refused her so many times in a row. If Seith would have disagreed once more, Nasuada swore to herself that she would behead the elf woman standing in front of her. Such a disrespect towards her authority was unbearable. Maybe to Nasuada's surprise and relief, Seith nodded.
"As you wish."
