Rowan's initial response to Ama's glare was an indifferent huff, not particularly caring what methods were used at the moment, as long as they were able to procure what they came for. Her thrown out arm and mildly panicked reaction prompted a different response however. Rowan had been in enough similar situations to know what that reaction meant. In a flash his bow was in his hand, the other poised in case he needed to grab an arrow. He couldn't see whatever Ama was looking at, or sensing, but he didn't doubt that something was there. Once Ama began to move again Rowan relaxed his position, though kept his weapon in his hands. He wasn't sure what 'it' was by her short explanation though, he was going to need more information if he was about to go into the lair of a monster that could make itself undetectable to the untrained eye. Those creatures usually had a mastery over their territory, going in unprepared would most likely be fatal. "What are we up against? What's this thing capable of, and what should we watch out for?" He asked in a clear, serious tone. Rowan was a few steps behind Ama now, closely following the path she was taking through the cave entrance.

Laura appeared to give Aislin's question some thought. The siren was pleased at the offer, knowing it was a sign that she would be willing to open up to the Siren without excessive convincing and prying. There could be various factors, but she had a motivation to speak that over ruled whatever safeguards she had put up around her secrets. It could be a sense of fair trade after what Laura had revealed, it could be an unconscious desperation to get it off her chest, it could be fear Laura would find out from someone else out of Aislin's control. Hopefully Laura would be able to identify this later on, but for now it was time to claim her first reward. "Well, I'm not one to waste an opportunity, and we do appear quite alone at the moment. I'm sure you'd rather do it now while we have a reason to be alone, rather than make the others wonder why we keep meeting in private."
