Fifteen minutes to craft a bomb... She supposed there was no rush. But the suggestion of simply throwing the flower into the fire was a stroke of genius. "Perfect," she whispered, licking her lips in anticipation. "Of course, we'd need something to weigh it down. A stone would work, but then the flower may fail to ignite. Wood would be preferable." As her eyes scanned the docks, they fell on a collection of barrels that were often used to transport cargo to and from the ships. Inspecting them carefully, she managed to find one barrel that showed a few signs of damage, and broke off a large splinter from it's cracked remains. "I believe this will do nicely," she stated as, with gloves hands, she started to wrap the stems of a few of the deadly flowers. That should take care by the five by the fire, at least. Still, there was far more than just them to worry about.
Zilvra lifted her eyes when Jaken pointed out the snipers. "Now they could be a problem," she whispered. "I'd suggest taking them out first. If it's done quietly, the others won't be alerted, so we can take our time with the rest." Still, as the
werewolf pointed out, it could be tricky to take down four snipers in complete silence without any of the others noticing. When the wolf offered her his crossbow, the woman politely raised a hand and shook her head in refusal. "I'm afraid a bulky
weapon like that would be wasted on me, my dear. But do not fear, I have a few skills of my own." With that, the elf ungloved her right hand and wriggled her fingers with a wink. After all, it wasn't uncommon for one of the
elven kind to have a strong affinity for magic. "Now, I do know a few aggressive spells, but I doubt they'll serve me well in this situation. A bolt of lightning suddenly appearing out of nowhere is going to draw attention, and we don't want that. What could be useful are some more... Subtle tricks I have up my sleeve. Observe," she said as she looked around for a target. "The one by the fire with the red kerchief," with her target in sight, she gave a slight wave of her fingers and whispered some kind of incantation. Shortly after, the man turned his head and looked around before addressing his comrades in confusion. "I'd wager that young man just heard a faint whistling coming from behind him, and can't for the life of him figure out where the sound came from. A useful little ruse when it comes to stealth attacks, don't you think? Distraction can be a more powerful tool than you'd think."
An eyebrow suddenly raised when the young man started undressing. "My, you are forward, aren't you? And you didn't even buy me dinner," she joked, without so much as turning her eyes away. It would likely have been the polite thing to do, but Zilvra wasn't some blushing maiden to become shy and awkward at the sight of a man with his shirt off. Besides, she wanted to be sure that her eyes were on him when he transformed. She'd seen
werewolves before, a couple of times, but this would be the first time she actually witness the transition from man to beast. As one with a keen interest in all things magical, she certainly wouldn't want to miss that.
As Jaken began transforming, Zilvra's predatory grin grew wider and wider. This creature was magnificent. More incredible than she had even imagined. A monstrous beast that could obliterate everything that stood in his path... Yes. An animal like this could prove very, very useful indeed.
Now, how to go about this, that was the question. "I'm not one for close combat," she confessed without hesitation. She had absolutely no intention of risking her life in this quest. That's what she was paying him for, after all. "Here's what I suggest. You take those snipers out one by one. I'll keep my eye on things, cause a distraction if any eyes start to wander the wrong way, and a few illusions while I'm at it. Masking the blood shouldn't be difficult, and it's incredibly simple to make a dead body appear as a living one. Once those sharp-eyed bastards are out of the way, or if something were to go wrong, I'll cast the flowers into the fire. That should take five of them out, and the smoke and screams should cause a long enough distraction to deal with the rest... Then, well, you can see what other tricks I have up my sleeves," she suggested with a challenging smile. "What do you say, killer?"
