To try and buy Isidor Durant's good opinion would be folly. But there is buying, and there is courting. Earning, perhaps. So many conjurers see the art as nothing more than bindings and contracts. Coercions and transactions. Felix makes a point of cultivating the subtler side of his skills. The side that's all about building connections and relationships. He's rather talented at that, when he's himself.

"Other daedra don't usually pay much attention - I didn't anger my usual atronach by speaking with this one, if that's what you mean. To tell the truth, I think they struggle to distinguish mortals, even when they want to. Cultivating a relationship can be costly in time, and effort... but it does offer a power most people underestimate."
