Swamped

It's true that we can't guarantee the creature wouldn't attack us. Shume wanted it brought to him, and he could likely exert more control over it than we could, especially if he's as powerful as he claimed. Maybe we should just leave Shume here (preferably without the coins).

I'm not sure we want to be around him if/when he wakes up. He wasn't overtly hostile to me, but he was a far cry from friendly. The two of us can get under Long's shoulders and carry him to the galley.

Also, it might be safer to walk the corridors now with Shume subdued than it was earlier.
