On one hand, it was a relief that the barkeep seemed to recognize who this man is that entered his establishment. This meant that Mikail could get the service he was desperately in need of, whether or not that service would prove to be useful will be found out shortly. On the other hand, after the assassination attempt, he was not sure he wanted to be recognized at this point. One thing he was always sure to discover was that if there was one strike against his, or anyone's, life there were surely to be more just around the corner in case the first assailant were to fail. He could almost be sure that there was someone keeping tabs on him, though this theory was looking less and less plausible as time went on considering he was an easy target while riding through the woods. Yes, he was certainly a deadly fighter, even with one arm, as Ankly had discovered. However, a second ambush would have most likely done him in.<br/><br/>"Thank you," he replied to Ale, appreciation for the hospitality in his words as he spoke, "I am grateful for any kind of help you can give at this time." He made his way into the room, lighting the torch that was on the wall beside the entrance, illuminating the room which he scanned with great care before approaching the bed after deeming it to be safe. The sound of footsteps turned the general around quickly,  hand on his hilt out of instinct but not without decisive thinking, ready to strike down with great precision anyone who may be ready to come at him. He relaxed when he saw it was Ale along with who he assumed to be the doctor's daughter that had been mentioned.<br/><br/>Sitting on the bed that was neatly made, Mikail eyed the woman who was to treat him, "I was attacked just outside the village," he spoke to her calmly, "a blade pierced my flesh and went all the way to the bone. By some fortune it did not slice completely through my shoulder. However, I have been unable to move my arm since then. I fear the nerves maybe have been severed." He tried his best to cover the worried look that he was certain was on his face.
