The creature was annoyed at it's admittence to the soul it sought being denied from it, but it new better than to pick a fight that it couldn't win. Instead of complaining or trying to barter for it, the creature leaves and appears back at the bridge, relaxing underneath it so as not to be bothered by the horde of 'chosen undead' before extending an arm up to cosmos, a face appearing in place of it's hand as it asks "will the magic you're casting use up those souls? i wish to experiment" while it watches with interest.
