Master Klaxeon responds to Matron Ki'Willis with a broad smile on his face.
"Excellent! I knew we could cooperate to accomplish great things!"
With a flourish of his hands, Klaxeon retrieves a circular metallic device from his belt.
Showing the device to Matron Ki'Willis and the other members of House Millithor, he explains almost as if he were trying to sell the device to you,
"Matron Ki'Willis Millithor, the esteemed patron of House Millithor Krecil, and other members of the great House Millithor, this device I hold in my hands is a Cephalometer. Once placed upon the head, this device can be used to probe the mind.
"There is no pain! The subject will feel a mental intrusion. A subject with a strong will can prevent the mind probe if he so chooses. If the subject chooses to prevent the mind probe, an observer will see little red, green, and blue lights around the Cephalometer. No lights means that the probe is proceeding correctly.
"If you wish, in order to prove our good will and that the device does not inflict pain, we would be happy to demonstrate the Cephalometer on another of your servants before using this device on your beloved patron. Matron, you can even choose the questions if you wish to test the loyalty of your new bugbear."
