Alison speaks to Ryybyn, “I am fully aware of how terrible enchantments can be and how much I am asking of you personally. You would be trusting me to not modify the innermost parts of your mind. All I need is the name of the sword, with that, I can use another ritual to divine all there is to know about it.”

Alison offers a hand to Ryybyn, “I will only look at what you consent to. Please, trust me, I’m your friend.”

Ryybyn hesitates a moment, but withdraws their hand from Alison’s. “I can’t deal with this right now.”

Ryybyn leaves towards the rear of the houseboat, “I need some space.”
