Hey editors! The following is part of a sentence I am trying to write:
or, at best, are treated as a curious tangent from the presumed more important story
I want to set off (or rephrase?) "presumed more important" and make it clear that I don't actually think it's more important. Thoughts? Hyphens? Quotes? Something?
Change "presumed" to "presumably"?

Who steals from a guy named Attila?
The same person who starts a land war in Asia.
