...Oh, is that what they are?

[she sighs]

I guess they didn't trust me enough to actually tell me what they do.

That may be the case.

[ a lil blunt there melody.... ]

But is it your intention to help to find them and deliver them to Daffodil?

Of course.

Don't you trust me?

[truth field!]

I do not.

[ but she would admit that regardless of truth field so she doesn't immediately realize it's in play ]

Trust is something that needs to be earned, Your Name. Helping here is a good start, I think.

[she'll turn off that truth field]

I take offense to that. Would you default to not trusting me if I were one of you sheep?

Then, you'll let me find the coin. Or hand it over to me if you manage to find it first.

It'll look much better for me if I turn over the coin than you, right?

Personally? Yes. Flock or Weed does not impact my feelings. In fact, I do think it's rather unfair how quickly people are to judge Weeds. But it's the individual's actions that determine my feelings.

[ and she's also just not a trusting person ]

Or we can do it together.

Search or turn it over? If we turn it over together, it'll just look like you were "keeping me honest."

[she yawns]

Anyway... Daffodil's shepherd... well, he's not pleased with me. But that has nothing to do with Tyr and Crois. I have nothing against them. So, why wouldn't I give it to them? For the sake of being mean? That's not very nice.

Search... I think we're getting a little ahead of ourselves... [ since they haven't actually found anything ]

But if you're concerned they'll think badly of you for this, I can vouch for you.

That's an interesting middle ground. All right. I accept.

In the end, as long as the coins are found, I think Daffodil will be satisfied.

[ but she smiles! ]

Very well. I've, ah, been searching for those sheep.... they are rather evasive when they want to be.
