Charlotte didn't like that it was dodging her questions. However, it was right. There wasn't any time to have a discussion on this. "How can I trust you'd stay in the city?" It was a fair question. She couldn't trust it at all. More footsteps in the distance made her tense. She was going regret doing this, but she reached in her shirt and pulled out a leather with a rectangular token.
"Take this," she said, offering it to the gargoyle. "If you get stuck again, break the token. It will transport you to a safe place. Also know that I can track you with it. If you take one step out of the city, I will hunt you down." Charlotte scowled. These tokens were expensive. She didn't have much choice, though. With one last look at the creature, she slipped back into the shadows.
