Watching the Manticore freeze as his paralysis sets in, he breathes a sigh of relief, and gestures for someone to slit its throat, saying softly, "Well, I have two more castings of that spell, and two more of either fly or Dimension Door, lets try to not do that again, hmm?"<br/><br/>He lets someone else get the door, figuring nothing heard the snap of the bone or the soft growl of the Manticore.
