[Vex nibbles on the bread as she considers what it is that Yor has said. There's sense in it, but there's also a great deal of paranoia layered in it. The kind of paranoia that can lead to it's own sort of trouble.]
Like I said, it's not my secret, so I'll keep it. If my brother finds out, it won't be from me, you understand.
[She doesn't like keeping secrets from her brother, but this isn't anything that will get them or those they love killed, so she can keep her mouth shut. If Percy shows up, all bets are off because Vex and Percy don't keep secrets from each other. Not anymore.]
I will say this. If you need help taking someone down who might be a liability, let me know. I've been known to be helpful.
[Paranoia is the name of the game in her world. It's the cold war, baby, paranoia is all the rage.]
I appreciate that. I know it might seem silly, but it's important to me.
[As long as Vex isn't the one telling her brother, that's all Yor can ask. She probably wouldn't love the idea of Vex telling Percy, but that's not something she could do anything about even if she did know him.]
That's very kind of you! I try to clean up my own messes, but all the magic in this place is so new to me. It would be nice to have help in case the liability is like a dragon or something.
[Paranoia is no healthy way to live. Vex is glad that it's not hers anymore.]
As I said, I have others that I wish to protect. Both here and back on Exandria. I suspect that if you asked the others here, you'd find it a very common feeling amongst our fellow "travellers".
[Yes, that's the word she's going with for what they are.
When Yor mentions dragons, Vex can't help but give her a sharp smile.]
Ah, well, if your troubles do come down to a dragon, I am definitely the person you want to consult. [She waves to her bear and begins to speak in Draconic.] "Dragons are no match for my skills."
