It's much as he expected. That's good. That's really good. Felix takes a few moments considering the implications. Were Harrowheart conscious and communicative here the conjurer would defer to his 'client', but having gotten this far he doesn't dare risk it all by backing up and hoping to recreate the circumstances so nicely.

Besides, a month isn't bad at all. Quite comfortable, really. He has only nebulous suspicions about how Harrow's been keeping the blades satisfied up to this point, but supplying some soul or other to feed them can't be so hard for the death knight. (And perhaps there's a part of Felix that says, good luck to Harrow if he thinks anyone else can get him better terms. These blades don't seem likely to yield any further.)

Very well, he says at last, letting them feel the finality of his acceptance before he starts to turn words - ideas - into binding terms. The right to reap one soul at least, at the end of each month Harrowheart is apart from you.
