Arhu's slightly-oversized ears skewed, annoyance and confusion both, and he paused in his grooming to squint at this other wizard. "A Gate. It takes you between places." He lashed his tail, decided not to elaborate further, and asked, "Didn't the Powers tell you about Gates...?"

Or did he have a rogue in his claws, here? Or worse, a new wizard on ordeal? By Iau, he hoped not! Arhu wasn't very good at gauging human ages, but this one did seem a little old for an ordeal, at least.
