For a moment, there's no sound but breathing, a silent consideration of what's been offered out. It makes sense, on a purely logical level. And if she's to be realistic, she isn't quite put out by it, if the deaths happen and get reversed. It's the same as it was, where they'd take blows for each other - they just didn't let the hunters eat their corpses in the end.
Eventually, she sighs, louder than necessary just so that Erin gets her point. Fine, it says. I won't argue with you on this. The less she argues, the more docile she seems, the less people will want to pry.
What a life for him, though, never quite fitting into one place. Undone by one's own nature, both times. Could someone be happy, like that? Despite everything, she can't help but feel a twinge for it.
"He hopes you'll challenge him again at some point, when you feel ready to go again. He spoke highly of your battle."
