Nackfist remained undeterred by her proposal. She just dropped her weapon, acknowledging that she had no chance against both him and Snapwrist. When he first made his threat to her, there were two possible reactions she could have had. Fight or flight. Instead of foolishly attacking him to her death, she chose to surrender to his mercy. Yet, she had this, confidence. Normally, if someone who had come and attacked you first offered a truce, it was because of the turning of tables. Seen as how she went on about him not being someone she knew or was hunting her, it's really pointed out her personality in a way. She wasn't offering a truce because the table was turned on her, so what could it be. She dropped her weapon BEFORE making the offer, oddly enough.

He continued to think on the topic 'does she want to hire me as a body guard? Or to assassinate whoever is chasing her?' But that seemed unlikely. Whatever she did, it was bad, she just wanted to be sure she wasn't under threat, but to check that, she needed this to be on her terms, so that if he was a she could have quickly dispose of him. So that's why she had him at axe point questioning him like his life depended on it. His answers would have effected the outcome greatly. He was suddenly increasingly glad he had denied being a hunter of dragons, this was probably a death sentence before he could even explain what he meant by it.

But now he had her at both mace point and dragon point. 'Damnit, she unarmed herself to appeal to my humanity, surely. I won't kill an unarmed man, she's trying at my sympathy'. He relaxed a little bit, standing up straight. 'I don't need to trust her to have a simple truce, we can shake hands, she can leave, I can sleep and then we'll never see each other again' he nodded to himself.

"Truce as in, you don't attack me and I won't attack you. I'll take you up on that. Run home kid, it's a harsh world out here. I personally don't believe for a second you own any of this land. So unless you gonna overthrow me and force us out, Ima stay here until my day off is over" he stated, none of it a question, he was going to stay here for the rest of the day and unless he was under any REAL threat, he wasn't going anywhere. He lowered his mace, the.pointed it out to the open, bowing slightly, like a gentleman allowing her to leave first. Then he just waited for her response.
