You offer yourself.
Aurelia's lips pursed to the side of her mouth and her gaze averted. Silent as she listened to more of Mildew's counsel.
As for the Gods knowing exactly what she was capable of, well... that's what Aurelia was afraid of. Her expression grew dark and she tucked her hands closer to her body, shoulders hunching.
"No... I wouldn't," Aurelia answered quietly, distracted. That had never been her plan anyway. Well, she hadn't had a plan but, if she did, it wouldn't be that.
She started, leaned forward again, pausing and nervously chewing on the inside of her cheek, "I'm capable of terrible things. Before Caido, I wasn't a good person. I was doing whatever I had to, to provide for my family, to survive," her gaze flinched because it was hard to admit something like that so plainly, but she did it anyway, "I've taken countless lives, sometimes I was glad to..."
"That's why I'm afraid to go to them. I wouldn't want someone like me, why should they?" She grimaced and looked away with a bitter shake of her head.
