"A debt refers to a personal matter," Medea elaborated, "And from your request is already a debt, there is no need to compile what has already been done."
The Head Priestess reached for her bracelet, unsnapping one of the many brightly-coloured gems decorating the piece. This particular one burned a deep topaz. She offered it, palm open. "It will be enough to empower you, take this token as my blessing, and let it be proof of our meeting together. Show this to those of my clans, and they will guide you to our next task and prepare your path forward. You may still, if you choose so now, walk away, and forget everything that had transpired. Yet, if you indeed choose to take my blessing, then your vow and debt will be to continue forwards on your path without looking behind. Fear means so little if you hesitate, despite what others may have taught you. A true warrior of the Lost Clans is both noble, merciful and fierce, they make quick work in the field and gather as much ad they can for themselves and their cause. Work with us, for us, and you will work for yourself."
The topaz glimmered in her palm.

To take this was to give more of herself to a clan that she had already sworn some alliance to. That much she understood, her fingers brushing over the purple crystal she wore around her wrist for a moment. She looked to the offered gem in the Priestess' palm before she carefully reached out, taking it carefully between her fingers before sliding it into her own palm, feeling its weight settle there.
"Thank you." Shehk kept the topaz clasped tightly, shifting it slightly in her hand as she felt the edges of it, getting a feel for the token she had been given. Beyond that, she wasn't sure what to say, instead continuing to sit alert and attentive.

And to that the Head Priestess simply nodded, swiftly and curtly. "May the blessings of Death be swift to those you fall, and may your path be less clouded. We are of kindred spirit, my child, there was a time when I was wild and free, our spirit cannot be tamed, simply focused and given purpose."
She nodded one more time and then closed her eyes, curling back into a meditative pose.

For now, it seemed that Shehk had no further questions of the horsewoman, bowing her head one last time to the priestess before she silently got up, passing a last look into the pyre thoughtfully, then stepping outside.
She was slightly more confused now than she had been before, but she was going to go with this....and see what happened.
