[He pauses, humming to himself thoughtfully as he pretends to consider the suggestion carefully. There's a bright spark of electricity as he magnetizes himself a little as well, floating in the air and folding one leg over the other comfortably. An excuse to show off his cool powers and scare helpless children?? Damn right he's going to put in his best theatrical efforts.]
And what if there isn't enough power left? That sounds like a raw deal for me. Why should I agree to that when there's no guarantee I'll benefit, hmm?
But I suppose if enough of them are recovered... ah, it's quite an easy problem to solve, kukuku. If they can recover all of the wands and there's enough power left for me to make use of them, I suppose I can spare them their lives.
Of course, if they miss one or use up too much magic I'll have to make up for that somehow. [He shrugs, waving a hand in the air dismissively.] A human soul or two should be enough for that. That's a much more fair agreement, don't you think?
