Lemm's expression doesn't change, but he dips his horns. "I'd manage." (Inside: fluff, unwelcome and difficult to oust.)

"I wouldn't try too hard, if I were you. But if you stumble on anything, I'd be interested." There. Open ended, innocuous, says nothing of transaction. "You can change things there, then?" he asks the Knight.
He has been out of his depth for some time. But it doesn't feel bad.
