Alynne listens to the goblin and his reasons, actually quite respectfully without interrupting him.
'' And that is were you get it wrong, Mr. Ikkit. And why your idea will never work. You are the one that doesn't get it...'' She said calmly in a friendly tone. '' This might be Sigil true, and you might be in the right when it comes to the functioning of this city politics, but a fiend is a fiend, here in Sigil, in Baator, in Gehenna or the Abyss. She will never be on friendly or benign side, that is not her nature and it will never be. There is no friends or friendly terms with a fiend, they do not understand that very concept because it is not something in their very nature.'' She explained.
'' They only understand strength and power, nothing else, and the mere notion that you try to be ''friendly'' or show them that you try to be ''one of them'' is were you fail.'' She might not be the brightest but Alynne still made a pact with one and has a familiar that is also a fiend, she has some understanding on how they operate.
'' When you put yourself on a situation were you accept whatever they say and you accept without question, they only see weakness, you are nothing but a grovelling pest to be exploited and thrown away the very moment you are no longer useful. In fact you are trash to them right now and will always be, i would not be surprised if she is actually sabotaging you in this very moment while feigning being helpful just because it will be fun to see you fail and cause you misery and pain, that is their nature.''
'' What i did was an incredibly risky and dangerous gamble, i do understand that. I do not know how powerful that particular yugoloth is, probably pretty strong and pretty inluential, but even though i might piss her off, and maybe put myself in more danger, i also shown that i'm willing to stand and demand respect, unlike the bootlickers that follow her in her entourage.'' She adds. '' That might make me someone to be dealt with, or someone that might be more interesting than the group of losers that follow and do whatever she wants with them.'' She said. '' A yugoloth is a yugoloth, and will always be on Sigil or a Prime, there is no difference in there''
'' Your idea will fail, as long as you mantain that attitude. And that is my opinion. Take it as an advise, or not. I took a risk here, as i also took a risk with my own soul with a being far more powerful and influential than that yugoloth. The fact that it backed down just by mentioning him shows you what i'm dealing with in search of my goal and the resolve i must have to fulfill my own dreams.''
'' Are you always going to crawl on the garbage under their foot? Or are you going to demand respect you deserve Mr. Ikkit? Food for thought.'' She finally adds.
