Lemm is immediately keen to see the quills. He rather overlooked these before, deeply distracted from his usual tendencies by questions like what do you mean you can die over and over? and other such troublesome things. It's not the case now.

He tilts the Knight's grip slightly to get a better look at some of the quills. "I'd bet good Geo the making of that one had a smith involved, look at the metal and the etching on the nib..." A pause. "Reminds me of your Nail. I wonder if that's how they balance these things?" Another pause. His hands reluctantly retreat. "I don't suppose you'd...? I'll pay well, of course."
