"Oh, you don't have to worry about my crew and I causing trouble. We're here in peace - trade, managing my tavern, exploring the Wilds, that sort of thing. We aren't like the Fallen, you have Captain skekSa's promise on that. I'm the patron of the Sifa clan of Gelflings back on my home planet, and I take my duties seriously."

The Mariner gives a solemn nod. She's grown fond of the Nexus and its people, and if her help's ever needed she'll be willing to lend a claw. It's partly her established business interests here that she wants to protect, but she has friends among the citizens, too.

"There is an ocean here, deeper in the Wilds. I'd like to find it some time while it's still warm. Winter isn't the best for sailing, though not impossible. Perhaps I could bring Vassa there, now that the ice has cleared. An expedition might not be a bad idea, for the future, but I'll need to steer clear of the part that's marked off. The people on that territory won't grant safe-passage to strangers as a rule."

Not much of a problem. Since she knows better than to try and bargain or negotiate with the Fallen, she'll find a way around their territory and avoid them completely, assuming it's an issue at all. She doesn't know all the landmarks yet, the stable ones anyway.
