"It's not every day a Relic Seeker admits someone else is more knowledgeable. We're a prideful lot," he continues, passing out of the small forest of cast-aside Nails. "But that's a poor excuse. Sometimes a bug's just sour."
There are canals here and there, and Lemm's jumped these before, but right now he skirts along until the footbridges and walks them both the slow way.
"All that behind your mask, and a sour old bug needling you like I did..." He glances down to keep an eye on them, not that he expects to glean much from a visual inspection. "...No, we'll get you out of the rain, first." It's not far to the elevator, or to his shop.
