Blustering about payment, hesitation...they can only guess if discomfort or fear fuels the latter. They do know he'll want to ask again later.

They've committed.

They're willing.

The Knight picks up the quill. Some things...can't be told through gestures and pointed stares. Not without bringing him directly to certain sources--no, not even then. The Abyss or the White Palace and its Path of Pain or the Black Egg all together wouldn't explain enough. That wouldn't explain them.

They have plenty of spare paper. Some bought from Iselda directly, some picked up from Cornifer's discarded attempts.

The Void experiments the Pale King--no. They don't want to start with him and his crimes.

They...don't know where to start.

...Perhaps that's where they should.

I've only recently discovered most of what I am, and how it is involved with this place. I do have information but don't know everything. I do not know where to start. If you have anything more specific you would like to begin with, I would appreciate that.

They slap their paw against the paper for attention and rotate it in Lemm's direction.
