Seeing just how hungry Sanda looks (and hearing another name starting with 'S' :-)
Felix beckons to Serene.  "Another chance to show off your skills -" he says
"What do you think would suit *that* one?", & gestures towards the noticeboard.
"This should cover the cost" (placing some coins on her tray), "and this should
recompense you for your troubles".  With that he adds another coin to the pile.
It is a simple disc of silver, but on the surface is stamped the impression of
an animal paw - maybe some kind of cat?
