A basket and a bottle? Wonderful. However as Sunjata leaned in and stated his cost, the Warden's eyes widened a fraction. "That is a very steep bargain, sir, in exchange for these two items," he said, for all the world looking as though he wasn't even going to consider it. And yet, after a moment or so, he shrugged. "Why not? There's plenty of space and the citizens of Halo would be thrilled for another place to warm their toes. And with stories aplenty from you Outlanders? I'd be a fool not to."
Sliding the basket and bottle forward, he nodded his head. "You've got yourself a deal, sir." He watched the bottle rather than the man as he was poured another drink, long fingers dancing around the rim of the glass as he considered the other man's words. "I can see that by their frequency," he noted. "Ascended Queen or not, however, I've heard of the Voice's rocky reputation. You must be quite the thrill seeker, putting your life in another's hands in exchange for a bit of pleasure."
