She rewarded him with a shark-like grin: all teeth and no smile. He understood what needed to be done and she was glad he was willing. She wasn't sure how much she valued his skills. At first, it had seemed like an equal payment, but then she had worried herself silly, offering up other ways to even it out. But now that she thought about it, it had to be equal: knowledge was power and the ability to silence one was another form of knowledge.
"I will do this," she agreed. "Until next time, Drizzt," she added in farewell. She paused for a moment to check to see if she had anything else to say; she did not, so she turned and trotted away.
