The bedridden man seemed to perk up at the mention of a drink, and Nate grinned, knowing he had found a indeed spirit. Or at least the beginnings of one. He looked around the room, wondering if anyone would notice him slinking down to the Rathskeller and bringing them both something back up. God knows he would have appreciated it any of the times he’d found himself in the other mans position. It seemed a touch to risky though, so instead Nate sighed, and turned back to his temporary charge.
”Trouble and drinking always go hand in hand.” Nate laughed, shifting to be more comfortable while he did. ”I’d you’re lucky though, sometimes it gets you out of trouble.” What came out of the injured man next piqued Nate’s interest though, and he leaned forward. He’d heard the expression selling your soul before, but something about how it was said just guaranteed a story.
Perhaps he was talking about one of the gods? Nate knew of about one of them, nowhere near enough to tell which one might take a soul, and so he sought the other of least resistance. ”Was ir worth what you sold it for?” He kept his voice light, trying to make it seem like he wasn’t probing for information.

Nate
I always thought that I'd die young
Make some money, be someone
They all love you when you're gone
But who knew life would be so long?
