Peregrine was more than pleased that the woman seemed at least open to the idea. She introduced a bird, and Peregrine nodded in greeting to it as well, even going so far as to laugh when it threatened to eat Tsiry. The lemur puffed up and glared, so Peregrine was duty bound to reply, "Yes, I'm afraid I can't let that happen unfortunately. She and I have worked out a deal of our own, and part of that is for me to keep her intact." She shrugged away the notion, knowing that if Tsiry were given the opportunity to open her mouth a cacophony of rage and likely swearing would follow suit. And least the prosimian had notion enough of diplomacy to keep a lid on it.
She turned back to the alpha and answered her next volley of questions. "Nothing too strenuous. We would call from time to time at your borders with whatever we had to trade, and if you had ought to offer in return you could meet us with it there. We may ask once or twice a year for an escort into your lands for a proper gathering of greater quantity, and of course we would give part back as payment for the privilege. All we seek is the goodwill and opportunity of those who dislike trespassers." She ended her explanation with a wry smile, though she thought the woman wide for enquiring past her surface intentions, true as they may be. It would almost be unsettling to form any kind of bargain quite so easily.
