Snippet #1527736

Horris looked toward May and saw her legs convert to one fin, he looked around, anxious to see if others were there, and he gripped his gun slightly. He then looked down at the wounded Avidin as he spoke, even though he wasn't talking to Avidin, and said, "That may be so, but I would rather stay in my own element, if I could give you watertight skin to avoid drying out, would you want to leave your almost weightless home to lumber across roads?" He then look toward Cramoic as he listened to his reply. He suddenly had a new appreciation for him, and was slightly intimidated, but didn't show it at all. He commented by saying, "Well those are some remarkable feats, and you will most certainly survive this, but you must be careful; you are basically a leper right now, you cannot touch your son's mate or your wife until we cure you, I apologize but if you did at this point they would get the fungus--and they are not warlords."
