"I suppose.. finding yourself naked and bound in a circle, with a very insistant and perhaps somewhat arrogant mage being responsible for it, isn't exactly the best of days...  "  He sighed a moment.  "You really weren't fae before this, when the spell caught you, were you?"  Most of the true fae would have remained proud, and refused to appologize for any of thier actions, this was a much more, human reaction.  There was a hint of both wonder, and suprise in his voice, as he spoke to her, and perhaps it would make her feel somewhat better, now that he apparently believed her.<br/><br/>"Well.. you are fae now, perhaps the most powerful fae alive, at that, perhaps we need to revisit the ritual that brought you here, and see what was missed.  I suspect that you were made to fit the perameters of the ritual, rather then reaching into the fae realm, the ritual shaped you, made you into fae to fit."  He reached out and took the hand she had closed into a fist, opened it, and took a cloth, that he then got damp with a canteen of water, and wiped the blood from her hand.<br/><br/>"We are bound now, as Master to Familiar.. Wizard to Source.. Sorcerer to Focus.. making both of us far more then either of us would be alone.  The dominant control is mine.. the dominant power is yours.. so it is best we find some way to get along."  He paused again.  "Now.. I could just give orders, and force you to obey them.. but actually, I'd prefer to be gentler then that, my dear.  Shall we start from the begining again?  I am Alurian, Wizard, and you are my Source, might I have the pleasure of your name, beautiful Lady?"
