"What we have been trying to tell you since the beginning is that we had no interest in coming to this place. We were seeking a way to get away from a water-filled cavern and now we only seek a way home. We have always been seeking a way home. I feel we must be appreciative at the very least for your assistance with the 'Ambassador.' Is there any task we may be able to accomplish for you in return for the aid you provided us?"
"It was my understanding you had business in New Crobuzon. Was it armor or weapons you sought to be made by the Shop Keeper? Such things don't get forged overnight. If my information is wrong then please forgive me. As for what you can do for me, I did not help you for any kind of payment or so you would owe me a favor at some later time. I helped you because I chose to. I would be curious to know where you plan to go to from here? Of course if you don't trust me, I completely understand and won't mention it again. But if shared with me at least a few of your plans I may be able to be of additional help."
Tomeal will whisper to whomever is close by him, "It doesn't seem right that the frog-man and the prickly-man should suffer for simply trying to help us. The Magistrate said Agloval resisted giving them information which likely made his torture worse and the Shop Keeper was captured simply because Kee was sent to him by Rebels so he could fix his equipment cheap! What's happened to them is pretty much our fault!"
