He gave her a bow, a small smile on his lips, trying very hard to not eat the eye candy in front of him, the younger acolyte right behind the very matronly looking liontaur. "The spells probably didn't help because I was saturated with magic, and the defensive spells I had put up didn't allow unknown magic through. Thankfully, my ring of regeneration did most of the healing work, and once I woke up I could use my spells to heal the rest of the way. My apologies for the surprise, but I instinctively threw myself out of the fight I was in when the spell that stripped and cooked me hit, and I didn't have time to set a destination."<br/><br/>He rubbed his left bicep, like it still ached, before glancing at the statues. "Could you tell me more about where I ended up? Your acolyte gave me most of the basics, but I can't head home until I know where I am. A typical problem when a spell goes horribly wrong, I am afraid."
