Maxim was not a magic user, but he surrounded himself with several powerful wizards and he knew they could do unthinkable things that regular humans could only dream of doing. He decided to ask Renwyck about it and get his opinion.
The Leoraleis might lie to him about what happened, but Renwyck would be able to tell Maxim the truth.
"Can I see her?" Maxim got up from the bed. Since obviously he still couldn't sleep, he wanted to check on Emmelyn.
"Your injury is very bad. You can visit her when you are better." Soren advised. "You should focus on your own recovery."
"Your medicine doesn't even work," Maxim grumbled. "I haven't felt any drowsiness since you left me."
Soren didn't seem offended when he heard Maxim's complaint. He checked the bowl where he put his concoction earlier and turned to look at Maxim.
"It seemed your body is different," he said. "Is your tolerance for pain and cold higher than most people?"
Maxim nodded. "Yeah."
