Ialari pondered the paths that led to getting Shalla a new body. It was still early in the season with one of the shipment dates, the 35th, almost upon them. While interception was certainly an option, it carried with it some definite risks. As well, getting a body from storage was also quite dangerous and was not something Ialari could do personally thanks to the numerous protections in that area of the citadel; protections that made it deadly for the living to trespass. Despite the risks and potential complications, a plan was already forming in Ialari's mind.
"Shalla, correct me if I am wrong but when I first arrived, our group was greeted by a golem. Is it safe to say that the shipments of bodies would also be tended to by golems? If so, couldn't we acquire one of these golems and you change its orders? Perhaps have it conveniently lose one in my lab? Or for that matter, have one nab a body from those already stored here?" Ialari said all this as she stood in front of Shalla; glancing down at the nuit's bindings.
"Before you answer that however, I want to remove your bindings as a sign of continued good faith. I am trusting that our growing understanding will continue if I do so?" Ialari considered the possibility of Shalla attempting something through the use of magic although she was confident that if such a thing occurred, she could crush Shalla's skull with a simple backhand if necessary. Besides, where would Shalla go? Qiao was able to snatch her up the first time around, chances are he could do so again; thus the need for a new body to begin with.
Assuming all continued to go as well as they were starting after the removal of the bindings, Ialari would allow Shalla some freedom within the laboratory, simple as it was, where they could iron out their plans and preparations for the quest ahead. Perhaps she would wait until the coming of Spring to depart after having plenty of time to prepare herself for what sounded like a potential death trap. The rewards however were such that she would fight until death and although distasteful beyond reason, even further if necessary.
