She lightly touched the artefact, then withdrew her hand. "There's no need for you to worry. Your heroic actions in saving me and the royal family yesterday were more than enough. The Crystalforge Clan will take it from here." She refrained from asking for Orion's assistance directly, her caution regarding him growing, especially now that he had revealed his strength to be on par with her own.
To ensure they could obtain information about the outside world and find a way to leave the mountain, they couldn't possibly convince Orion that nobody in the Crystalforge Clan or the entire Prismerian Kingdom could challenge his strength, no matter what.
