Harald reversed a few steps in a quick succession. If that dragon lost control of himself... or that other guy that circled around it at tremendous speed... Then, having assured himself that apparently none of the two wanted to harm him, he started to speak. His voice was somewhat distorted as he used his lion's body and head for it. The clarity of his intended sarcastic undertone did suffer from it. "Chimera ? I consider myself being a walking mineral deposit." He used one of his claws to gently knock at the strange substance that was coming out of his head, arms and feet. "Fascinating, isn't it ? I'm Harald. I think 'splice' is the correct term for what I appear to be, but I'm offering you to call it 'scientific disaster' if you want to."

Perhaps he should just do the transformation. But he knew it was a rather disgusting process that would wedge an embarrassing pause into their conversation.
