Shard wanted to continue asking, but the doctor spoke again:
"In any case, Shard, your main concern lately should still be your studies as a Circle Sorcerer. The aftermath of the Lord of the Blood Feast and the Blood of Mercury has nothing to do with you, nor does the 'Masked Person under Silvermoon'. Let others worry about my injuries; you don't need to think about it so much."
Miss Annette, Miss Luisa, and Priest Augustus shared this sentiment. Shard thought for a moment and then summoned the Ring of Fate behind him.
White steam mist filled the bedroom but, surprisingly, did not spread far. The other four saw that the single-faced Ring of the First Ring Sorcerer shone with an intense glimmer of the Desecration Spirit Rune "Gluttony," which had already been inscribed upon it.
