Eli thought it over for a moment. Altair certainly seemed eager to kill the intruders. Thrawn had mentioned that he was determined to stop the grysks, but Eli couldn't be sure if Altair was out for grysk blood in particular or if he was just always this way when it came to a fight.

He and Thrawn both preferred to take prisoners, but the grysks were different. They couldn't be reasoned with, and only sought to conquer and destroy. They didn't deserve to be spared.

Eli made a hand motion across his throat, indicating that Altair could kill them.
