Rental costs will vary depending on my current needs for the chalice! Obviously it's going to be occupied for the next few turns, but once I have it back I'd certainly be willing to discuss terms in private.
(Sure, it's ballsy... but it's basically my entire artifact cache, so I want to profit from it as much as I can! Besides, it's a new and fun twist on gameplay options, why not give it a try?)
Also, a human pretender getting only a disease from a lance strike is not the worst outcome, I wouldn't complain too much
