Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker sarcastically challenges the notion that summoning something dangerous could ever be controlled or bargained with afterward. It questions the naivety of expecting a malevolent force to cooperate once invited in, framing that expectation as foolish rather than describing any real supernatural event.
