Well... that was something. There was no need to try and muster up explanations right here and right now. That was good. Even if Kaiser couldn't think up any feasible explanation other than the truth, that meant that perhaps telling said truth could wait until there wasn't such a potential audience. In any case, Trent was not wrong: Kaiser was keenly aware of his desperate need for a shower. Sure, what he wanted more than anything was to get to the food, but if he recalled correctly, there was usually a lengthy wait before it appeared, long enough to get cleaned up, he supposed. So, he nodded.
"Right here," Kaiser replied, shrugging his bag off his shoulders - another wince - and holding it by one of the straps. Everything was in there - magic was incredible - and he felt... very strange about the idea that he was about to be parted from it. Kaiser hadn't let his bag out of his sight all summer, but he knew this was an adjustment he was going to have to accept sooner or later, now that he was back at school.
As for all the rest, Kaiser faltered. Partly because maybe he did have the one injury, but also because it was taking him a little longer than usual to translate everything in his head, and even then he didn't quite manage to grasp it all. "My... here," he said, after a pause, gesturing to his ribs on his left side, but offering no further explanation. "Nothing else." No issues. No parasites. No pink fluffy things in tow. Just a tired sixteen year old, who was relieved to have made it back to the castle in one piece. "I can still go to the feast, sir, yes?" he quickly added, just to make extra sure he wasn't about to miss it.
