The barest hint of a smile touched his lips upon discovering that there was a map and a way to return to Cephiro, here he thought he might have been trapped in this odd new world. Zagato of course, being quite familiar with magic, was non-pulsed by her bending. In many ways it was exactly like the spells the people of Cephiro used, right down to the power of your will determining whether or not it would work. He swept closer to the lady so he could better see the map she conjured.

If it was a matter of willpower... He was the former High Priest of Cephiro a master of willpower focused magic and he had plenty of reason to return home. Something he usually kept quiet about but on this occasion found himself in a rare moment of being too open.

“In order to save her I must return to Cephiro.”
