It's a steep fucking price, but apparently Nate is ready to pay it and then some. Normally you might be skeptical of such an offer, especially made by someone who does not like you very much at all, and especially when that person is trying to use your goodwill as leverage, but gods if he doesn't seem properly desperate. It's almost physically painful to watch.
"Yup, that's right." Stepping forward at last, you sling an arm familiarly over Nate's shoulders. Just because you've decided to help him doesn't mean you can't be an ass about it. "An' don' worry, auntie- th' Director here'll be payin' us both back in a very reasonable timeframe. Won't'cha, Nathaniel?" You do not know if his full name is Nathaniel but you're taking a guess (and also you really don't care).
Still skeptical but won over by your word, the old woman lifts the cloth again for Nate to retrieve the diamond. Alright, but if I don' get 'em by mid Tallsun I'mma tell Conner t'come find you, Zephyr. An' I'm keepin' th'necklace if you don' come through.

I was born here and I'll die here against my will
