Yes and Yes

Alyssa is invited to the party by Clark, though she notes that Lynn is not in it and asks.

Lynn: "As I'm not a fighter, I don't join the others on hunts, but I help bring money to our group through my clothing stall in the big courtyard near the castle, don't worry about me, you go learn how to fight, I prefer making pretty clothes anyway."

Alyssa: "If your sure..., good luck with sales then." _She _Hugs Lynn and turns to Clark "So where are we heading, and how exactly do I use a bow?"

Clark: Laughs. "alright, so we are going real beginner here, we should probably just head out of town and hunt some deer or rabbits first, then we can see about getting you some armor." He says, looking at Alyssa's beginner clothes in distaste.
