Mark's eyelids wavered as steam was produced by the Commander's body.
Only then did he notice his mistake.
The exchanges were depleting his Endurance, Health, and Mana Points.

"You killed him..." Ani's fist descended on her thigh. Perhaps a way to determine how well she had recovered. "Before I could rid his face of that smugness."
Mark instinctively stepped back.
