Alendi considers whether to write his name. He could order her to open a gate, call some Steel Inquisitors, and torture Yellow until he rescinds the orders. If gate-making is fast enough that it'd finish before Yellow gets back. And if it's directed enough that the gate wouldn't open into the middle of the burnlands. And if this world's natives don't have some way of stopping Inquisitors. Too many unknowns.

He picks up the pen and writes Rashek.
