Red Fire, that hurt...

But it is done, and I am ready. Pray Builder of All and Mother Magma I worry too much and this is all unnecessary, but hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

All structures intact, and functioning within normal parameters. No residual damage, even the teeth-marks have healed in the intervening decades, with no scarring.

Would that sister fared as well, but at least she retains her hand-eye coordination, and she always was a better shot than me.

A few more flights to stretch out unused muscle groups, some time on the sands... couldn't hurt to be prepared....
