[No one has attacked him while he's been here so Alistair himself isn't really expecting trouble from the other man. But even if he's wrong about that he's equally confident in his ability to defend himself if it comes down to a fight. Unless they run into some other trouble - like possessed trees - in which case having someone to fight alongside is better than facing it alone.
And having company while exploring will be a welcome change. He's mostly used to travelling as part of a group and with the complete lack of wildlife in the woods the silence gets a bit unsettling when he's on his own. Having someone to talk to will be a good distraction.]
