Alice gave Asura a reassuring smile now she noticed that the blonde was connecting the dots. To why Hecate might be grumpy and sad but that was okay, Asura couldn't know and Hecate wasn't the one to hold it against her. And thus the conversation was over and Alice and Hecate followed Asura to where the merchant would be, as soon as the Caravan arrived, Alice took a step back in standing next to Asura and let her handle it at first instance alone.
Her golden hues looked at the two men, the caravan and the ore that was there, reminding her too much about the possibilities that wer there and that could happen. She did'n't say anything, but it reminded her about what happened about a year ago, which were vague memories, not lost but just forgotten as it didn't seem important to remember. She let her eyes can the man again, not answering, just nodding, and she tried to keep her face neutral, expecting the worst perhaps was a dumb idea. She looked at the other, silent as well, who looked at her and at Hecate, scanning them from head to toe and Hecate and Alice their eyes met. Thinking the same.
Her eyes going back to the merchant, or who seemed to be more about the money and the selling than the other, who had a tougher look, more strength perhaps? She also noticed the strange perhaps unhappy look on his face and she pretended to not see it. Everything went quick after that but not quick enough for the red haired woman, she let a smile touch her lips as she expected this, "You take the merchant." she called out to Asura as she moved her hand to activate her Vulpecula spell and she walked towards the helper, "Mistakes are made son." and she kicked his hand to let him let go of the money. She would look at what Asura had done and if she couldn't catch the merchant, she would use another spell on him to make sure that he wouldn't be able to run away either.
