Vanden's brow creases as he nods an affirmative to the girl's question. Then, realization dawning, his face flushes and his mouth opens in an "o" of shock.
"Yes, I am... err... that is to say I... a eunuch, yes." He trails off. "Exactly how old are you, young lady?"

The girl snatches the knife from Maugra.
"Dunno, I'm an orphan."
The door slams, locks and the group hears her pounding her way back up the stairs again.

While the group waits, Wetfoot begins asking them about how they got involved with the Longcoat case -- with mixed results -- and about the battle with the creature, how he was dispatched and their theories on what he actually was.
Finally, the girl reappears at the window at the top of the tower where the basket hangs. Her hair hangs down around her face, covering it in shadow.
"He says it's a scythe and a weird knife, not proof. He says to get the watch to send over something with Saltbeard's seal on it, then he'll pay up."

Vanden nods in response to Ada's comment. "Perhaps we should have kept Longcoat's cape or red cap instead?"
Calling to the girl, he asks, "Would you be so kind as to return the items we sent up with you? I would like to take the scythe, at least, back to the Sisterhood, and Maugra may want to keep the knife."

The girl sticks her head out, and gives the universally recognized teenaged girl sigh of exasperation. She sticks the dagger into the basket and then returns to the window a moment later with the scythe and twine, which she uses to lash the weapon to the container.
As she winches the basket down, she calls out: "I'm going to bed now. He had me up before dawn, reviewing the manifests of some Nallsmens' longboats. Come back tomorrow!"
