Astrid grumbled, "Stupid Arastine. We don't have time to think! If only her and Mireille joined we would have five!" She'd never talk like this to their faces of course, only in private. Slightly beginning to understand their concerns though, she hopes McKayla might accept, and scribbles Rixa onto the end of her list, seeing as she's someone who doesn't have much to lose. Afterward she'd planned to go back to Mireille and Arastine, this time having Tyris speak to them since Astrid admitted she was no good at appealing to those two. After that, they'd fight, no matter how big or small their party turns out to be, because as Tyris told Astrid, "One isn't gonna survive much longer afterward anyway if Marla ever catches the slightest wind of what we had planned. Or worse, she'll do to us, whatever she did to Aura."

Tyris meanwhile contemplates Hathus' words for a short time but quickly realizes, "Convincing her of something? HER? That's never going to happen. That bloke is outta his mind if he thinks that's possible... Well, we're outta our minds too tryna fight her, but still."
