Interesting. I'm rather certain you would fascinate him- Rurik, as it were. There were few witches ever turned in our land, that kept up with magics. And I've heard there are deities, here. Are they the type to meddle? Academic curiousity, of course- I don't look for fights with ones of that sort. At least, not this sober.
And again, you've caught me on a surprisingly well-adjusted day. Give me a day or so, and a drink or two- or maybe a drunk- and I promise, there's enough crazy to go around.
