Charon could see how to the boy's youthful mind, it would seem like a good idea to have alliances. He still believed that it could work. But maybe it would work, at least from their side, if he believed in it. If they were all as young as he then there wouldn't be many pups and that would eliminate a lot of time spent on other things. Charon didn't think he could do much in return but it didn't sound like it was necessary.

Eventually he decided, "Okay, let's do the alliance. I would like to be kept up to date." It seemed to have only advantages for him at best, and he didn't see a worst case scenario being terrible (at worst, they'd get nothing in return but neither have given anything), so Charon nodded in agreement.
