Anne looks flustered, "This…this is different Captain!"

Arlo chimes in, "Anne does this girl look like a mercenary to you?"

Anne shakes her head, "Of course not! And no one else would ever think so unless they were crazy or blind…"

Arlo nods, "Exactly. No one would suspect her. We could use that."

Anne doesn't know what quite to say and seems a bit confused and angry. A look Arlo is used to seeing and even has a name for it…confagry.

Arlo continues, "I'm not saying we put her in the front lines…but remember that one time in Ramshorn when the Captain asked you to go into town and investigate discreetly?"

Anne nods, "Yeah…so?"

"Well…you weren't very discrete…and you didn't really investigate so much as beat information out of people."

Anne shakes her head, "I got tired of everybody lying to me, I knew they knew where those farmers were hiding."

"Well… Vera would make an excellent spy for us. She doesn't draw much attention, and if she does no one would consider her a threat." says Arlo.

You nod, "You make some good points Arlo."
