"I know the High Mage has a few choice words, but...he's rather stuck in his ways, isn't he?" Mace laughs, though the mirth doesn't quite reaches his eyes. He pats the nearest dog at his side. "What matters is that you returned victorious. We've never faced such dangers before, these creatures from another realm or wherever it is they deigned to crawl our way. I would say that I hope we don't need to ask a repeat performance of you..."

But there is really no guarantee.
