[Ramesses' sighs quietly. He knew. Of course, he knew. But he offers no correction that he was not asking after the sphinx. There's little point when Chariot already knows what he was really asking. Her attention won't shift from the sphinx until it's healed completely.]
[Although he still has a deep reserve of mana to pull from, Ramesses cannot offer her direct help in treating the wound and removing the hex. He's not particularly well-trained enough in the healing arts to be of any real assistance. Without a Bond between them, there are no easy means of transferring Ramesses' mana to where it needs to be. For a moment, Ramesses thinks it may be best to put the beast down and alleviate it from its misery. While he knows the sphinx would accept such a fate, he doesn't think that Chariot would. Whatever she's feeling right now would only intensify. So what other options are there...?]
[Healing magic can be aided through blood as a focus and Witch's blood is naturally laden with mana... Crude as the method may be and as much as it would probably earn some disapproving looks from some of the Witches among Aefenglom's Coven despite the low quantity, it seems to be the only option to removing the hex. Ramesses draws a dagger from his side, and draws a line in the palm of his hand.]
Take what you need.
[Ramesses brings his now bleeding hand near to where she is working her spell.]
