<span class="mu-r">”By way of semantics, amigo, they’re the lifeblood of deals like this!”</span> Cackles the demon!
But… won’t that, like, surrender HIS soul to-
<span class="mu-r">”HA! ME?! A soul!? Bless yer’ heart, you’re as fresh in the head as a newborn heifer, ain’tcha?”</span>
When you don’t respond, the devil clears his intangible throat. <span class="mu-r">”It’ll work, friendo. Trust me, I know my way around a Faustian Deal… and I’ve got too many plans for your soul to hand it over to some twitchy twit like Trier!
