Morte makes sure to assume a more humanoidish shape and makes a polite bow.
Ahhh... Hi mr Henderson, pleasure to meet you. Menina Morte, an humble ferrywoman, at your service. Also good at slicing things dead and undead. Say, are those ruins your home? Because those kobolds are claiming land rights over this place, and we kinda accepted to clean up any remaining monsters inside in return for any shinies we find inside and can carry. But if you're the owner of this place, maybe we can reach some sort of agreement that will be mutually benefical?
