Perhaps she didn't know the power she held. For so long she had possessed a diminutive, gentle persona to protect herself for the harshness a rogue Associate could find themselves subjected to. And as a Family member she found it had to shake the feeling. She'd proven herself and had been rewarded for her word. For now she was safe at least. It would be harder for her to fall and yet so much easier. For one, she had proven herself an asset, but, for two? She was trusted with more and to do more and as such she had less space to slip up in. Of course this could have simply been her wandering mind, always fretting and thinking, she truly had no idea what actually went on as one clambered high up the hierarchy of Salsola. She assumed she'd find out if she proved herself properly.
Odessa nodded, a string of confidence showing through, 'I think I can' she replied, nodding solidly before planning her route along the beach. An easy enough task for one with more stealth than pure physical strength. Her pumpkin hue eyes gazed at the seals, they appeared slippery, like what people usually thought snakes felt like. Rubbery and wet, difficult to catch hold of but again Odessa had never encountered seals before and as such had no idea how it felt to touch one. As Siv explained her ways, Odessa nodded. It was merely the way of life and even she saw that Siv's method was the fastest, most painless and, in the ultimate end, the most humane way of ending their days.
'Here we go...' Odessa hummed aloud to herself as she crept along. While there were no adults on the beach she was cautious and paranoid, because they could turn up at any given moment. She selected a nearby seal pup, yet one far away from a spot where it would create a stir and approached it carefully. Kneeling beside it, she make a quick and quiet movement and held it down. The grey seal pup squirmed a bit, but remained still after finding out its movements were hampered. It made little sound too. Looking up to Siv, she waited.
