Yeah. It like, burrowed into my leg? And then I totally blacked out for...a few days, I think? I don't remember any of it, but Beatrice cured me. I could hear her talking about things we'd been through and it...woke me up, I guess? [He shrugs, but he doesn't really have a better description of it.] And I-- I guess that was enough, because I coughed up the lizard after that. Apparently it made me eat a bunch of weird stuff, and Beatrice said I even tried to eat her?

[He sounds unsure, because he doesn't remember, but he trusts her. It would be kind of a weird thing to lie about.]
