She is about to ask Rihyan what the word means, when the centaur dives for, followed shortly thereafter by Auralia with sword drawn. It takes her but a moment to determine the celestials' target, a group of three street toughs attempting to restrain a fourth. She recognizes the one on the ground, a many-tailed white fox, as one of the Jolly Barbazu's regulars: a philanderer and bon vivant, who spent a good deal of his time stirring up trouble among the tavern's patrons.<span style="font-style: italic">He must be Kahmori,</span>she decides,<span style="font-style: italic">but do they mean to aid him... or arrest him?</span><br/><br/>Seconds later, Chrrou's roar of challenge and subsequent charge against the standing toughs provide her an answer: Kahmori is definitely a friend.<br/><br/><br/><div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Initiative: 1d20 (16) + 10 = 26, delaying to Chrrou's initiative<br/><br/>Ride check for fast dismount: 1d20 (11) + 5 = 16, fail (move action to dismount)<br/><br/>Tumble check to avoid provoking an AoO for moving through threatened squares:<br/>Narsc: 1d20 (3) + 22 = 25, pass<br/>Buso: (2) + 22 = 24, pass<br/><br/>Alyssa uses Cunning Surge!

When her feet strike ground, she is already forming a prayer to Rubin in her mind.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">~By my touch shall be lifted the aches of the traveler, and the wounds of the matryr, for my hand is the hand of Rubin also... ~</span>Alyssa's hand glows softly as her fingertips brush Kahmori's fur, fading as the gathered divine power is transferred to her patient. A stream of light flows across Kahmori's back and into the spike-wound; mending flesh, straightening fur, and wicking away spilled blood. In seconds, the puncture is gone, along with a host of other scrapes and bruises left by Narsc's abuse.
