"Hold on," she spoke, turning her head to an aside and examining the information like it was written on the floor. "You are a cat? I don't understand. Are you a shapeshifter." Allison's sly smile alarmed Mryllica, making her feel the need to justify herself. "I've lived in the ocean for almost my whole life. I only came to land a few years ago.

"I suppose you, being a mercenary, would be in the business of knowing when people are going to die, but you don't have to kill her. I don't need a cat that badly." She pursed her lips. "But, I'd be glad to take the cat off her hands if she believes I'd make a better home for it. Although, I can't imagine cats like to live on beaches. Do they, Allison?"
