"Now there's an idea," Wysteria says, reaching as directed to give the big mabari a scratch behind his gnarled ears. Yes, yes, very well done. Good dog. "But no. I have an entirely different proposal in mind."
Because of course there must be some manner of scheme involved. Time sensitive, she had written. Indeed maybe this is the deciding factor for why she chooses to be so very direct with her next barrage of sentences.
"It must be said, Mister Ellis, that you have spent a great deal of time wandering about these last few months. Obviously, I blame the Commander first and foremost. But I wonder whether it isn't indicative of some more basic inclination on your part. I believe it is true," she says, continuing to scratch Ruadh. "That Wardens are by and large somewhat given to a more nomadic lifestyle. And it must be said that you have spent a considerable amount of time stationed here in the Gallows, field. Work not withstanding. It is therefore unsurprising that you should grow restless and care to travel abroad."
This is all merely preliminary to her points of course, but it's important for one to set an argument in its best context. With a last ruffle of Ruadh's functionally not very ruffleable ears, Wysteria pivots her attention to the Warden beside her more directly.
"Well you will be pleased to hear then that I have quite the opportunity for you to do just that."
