Yes, [ Astarion responds instantly, incensed. A moment later: ] No.

[ Ugh!! This is all so difficult. He deserves that cloak, dammit, and now he's got not only a vampire lord to contend with for it, but a godsdamned hag. Once again, it remains true: he has the hardest life of anyone in the world. He stops in his tracks, throwing his hands up in exasperation. ]

I mean, yes, of course I want us to kill her.

[ He has no qualms with killing a hag, save for the fact that, well, he's not entirely sure they can. It took a whole group of them to down Ethel, and even then, she came back. If Alkam can't even defeat her, what hope do they have? He's immediately forlorn, crossing his arms and sulking. ]

But we couldn't possibly do it. She'll kill us both.

[ 'Too hard'.

His gaze flicks to Damris, tied up on the floor. ]

I wonder if she might be interested in bartering for a sacrifice.
