She's not sure how long she sleeps on top of him, it's impossible to tell the time this far underground. She awakes refreshed, but quite...sticky from their earlier activities. She slides off of him, careful not to wake him up.
She counts the armor pieces out as loot almost immediately. It's bulky, takes up far too much room, and it will likely be difficult to trade for anything else. The jewelry though, that holds promise!
Her breath catches as she finds a long string of carefully matched black pearls, long enough to reach the middle of her breasts even when wrapped twice around her neck. It's potent, very potent, as strong as the necklace she lost. She'd never be able to WEAR it in the village, but she only needs contact with it to draw karma from it. And if she puts it on to show Skellig what it looks like on her, that's her business.
The lapis scarab pin is weaker, will take longer to recharge, but will be easier to conceal on her person.
Three other items are weaker still, only capable of offering her energy once and then never again, but still valuable: An egg shaped piece of amber, a wicked looking obsidian blade, and a delicate looking golden bracelet. She packs the pin, the amber egg, and the obsidian blade away, slips the bracelet on for Skellig to see.
Karma clings to the rest of it, but not enough that it's too valuable to trade away, if necessary. An elaborate amphora that USED to contain precious wine proves to contain vinegar now when she opens it. The smell is quite strong.
