Caleb wiped the blood from his lips with the back of his hand and looked at it for a moment.  His mana had to be dangerously low for this to be happening, or it could be the fact that he had transformed twice in one day.  His Incyus form drew on his life force each time, it was like a double-edged sword.  Powerful to cleave through obstacles, but easy to destroy the originator.  Caleb slowly caught his breath and stood slowly looking at the staff.  He observed it trying to figure out what exactly they were about to give Codal.  

"Are we really about to give this to him?  It's powerful, dangerous," Caleb replied giving a nod to indicate he could continue.  How they would get down was a different story.  "Do you remember how to create stairs with the landscape around you?  Should've been in the basics, Adventurer's Magic Guide."

Caleb stepped towards Ambrose and felt dizzy.  He steadied himself and tried to focus.  "If you want I can show you how to do it."  Caleb didn't look too good.  The color was slowly draining from his face and he was looking pale.
