There appears to be a winged lizard following me.

It is rather ravenous, too.

Like the one that exploded on my desk when I tried to shoo it off and took three stacks of reports with it?

[pompous_today]

It exploded?

[magical_bosom]

Quite spectacularly, I might add. It might have taken a few of my body parts, as well, if one of the more spry Adventurers had not been there.

It is a relief that you were not hurt, then.

But this is good to know, so that we can prepare to treat burn injuries at the clinic if need be.

[Tiny blot. "Burn injuries" is making him feel a little sick to his stomach.]

[magical_bosom]

That would be a wise precaution. You're one of the physicians?

[pompous_today]

Yes, I am a senior medic at the clinic.

[magical_bosom]

You hold one of the most crucial positions in this place, then.

Thank you for the compliment. I feel as though I am simply doing my duty, however.
