At least he got a response at all. Last he heard they were severely injured, and in recovery. Shadelord help him if the Hollow Knight just up and kicked the bucket so near to his shop.
But they're responsive, if not very. This Lemm thinks he can press a little. He's not convinced their answer - if that's what it was - was entirely true, not when the Knight gave him such wholly concerning information before. (They had said their sibling was unlikely to die, though. Thank goodness. Lemm is jittery enough about this already.)
"Thought you'd..." ...be in Deepnest? Resting? Maybe that's revealing too much of his hand. He doesn't want the Knight to get in trouble, either; they'd been clear some things were confidential. "...Never mind." He clears his throat decisively. "I'm no one to tell you, but maybe you should get yourself dried out. You're soaked through."
He's soaked, but he's not the one with health concerns.
