Success

A costly bundle

You make up an elaborate story about [...] debt to devils. She lends you the moon-pearls - [...], she must have been saving for years - but with a look that suggests she has her suspicions. And yet, she hands them over. You never see her again.

[Wiki note: Perhaps, in time, she will remember you.]


Failure

She gives you a sharp look

You make up an elaborate story about a dear friend in debt to devils, but she doesn't seem convinced. Hm. Perhaps you should have known better. This can't be the first time someone's tried to take advantage.
