He flinched back as the black owl landed before them, blinking and staggering back a couple quick steps. For a moment he felt caught out--his backfired magic had him off-balanced, no shield prepared, no-... Ahh. It wasn't attacking them.

"I feel... rather exhausted, after this. And--I have some things to catch you up on, Mercurius. I will come back here, but--do you mind if we go back to your garden, to rest? Before I pass out," he added--and he sounded as though he were only half-joking.

After a moment he turned, pacing out with the white lion by his side, with a weary but satisfied tread.

In any case, Pip was done here. "That was weird. Did any of you guys understand what Emuh said?" Not quite waiting for a reaction, Pip turned to leave. It'd be an interesting story to tell Morpho, at least. Too confused to parse any of it, Pip wandered off.
