I keep a lamp lit for whoever can't sleep. Payment comes later.

Went to ask the price of saffron and came back only knowing the price of water. These days the gossip on this stair costs more than the spice.

DanilI know the price of gossip better than anyone! Half price for you today.
SelmaThe trouble with yours is it always comes with interest.
Old HazramThe price of water didn't rise. The water just ran low.

Leave a lamp burning all night and someone always comes. Three came tonight, and not one of them would say where they got hurt.

IsmaHealer. One of those three, I sent.
SelmaWhile you were at it, you could've sent your own hand along too.
ZeharI wasn't one of them.
SelmaNot with that oil smell on your sleeve, you weren't.

Left elsewhere

Why didn't you mention your wrist? Roll up that sleeve.

Spend that saffron money on bandages instead.

Measure bandages that closely and you could work in my chamber.

If you're scared, come this way at night. The lamp's always lit.

Let me at least smell that cup sometime.

If it frightens you, take a lamp and come this way.
