The Skinwalker armor had more holes than swiss cheese, but it was perfectly functional. The problem was repairing it required time or mana. Alas, Lith had a shortage of both.
Luckily, the Warp Gate (*) brought him straight from Xenatos to Linjos's office, where Manohar, Vastor, and Marth were waiting for him.
Marth was there to heal his wounds while Vastor replenished his life force. Manohar was attending out of curiosity. He seemed to find the story of the wyvern and his mysterious array quite fascinating.
Lith reported to them the events, replying to all their questions about the nature of the Life Draining spell being careful to not blow his cover.
"Fascinating!" Manohar listened to every detail like they were sweet words from his beloved one.
"Wyverns are also known as pseudo dragons or lesser dragons. Never use those terms in front of them. They consider it a racial slur, just like the word 'lizard'."
