Mort squeaks something, trying to help the two people who have drawn the wretches focus. "I've seen how heavy those are. I don't think you could move it alone," Thanatos says. Mort gives a resigned squeak and readjusts his hold on his pointy object. "And when did you get that?"

Mort doesn't give a helpful answer. Just "earlier."
