Entering the building, Khnemu was still shirtless and with sand still falling from his skin, adding to the already massive pile. Walking closer to Zatanna and his hound, Khnemu stopped with a tilt of his head when the dog growled, preventing him from getting any closer.

[color=blanchedalmond]"I understand how my actions could have offended you, I only wish to protect this planet in any way I can, and harming my own people seemed the only course. I swear to you, Malacoda Zatanna, I will not harm another human being in cold blood."[/color] Khnemu said, not even eyeing the hound by the sorcerer's side. Khnemu meant it too, he took promises very seriously, it was against a man's moral compass to ignore a promise.

Noticing that Zatanna was bleeding from his mouth, Khnemu attempted to approach, thwapping the ground with his bandages to force the dog away from him, the seemingly weightless strips of fabric left dents in the ground and tossed sand into the air with every hit. Kneeling next to Zatanna, he examined him very closely.

[color=blanchedalmond]"You are wounded, Malacoda Zatanna. If this is my fault, I must give my apologies. If you wish to kill me in return, I will not fight back, I'm sure it would be pleasurable, and I will suffer no consequences unless my limbs are amputated."[/color] He offered in the same monotonous tone of voice as usual, it barely sounded like a kindness coming from him.
