He put a hand to his temple and sighed, stepping back. "I'm not a demon. I'm a.." Smallest hitch in his voice, "Just a man- a human. Nothing special. I was being chased by something that was going to kill me and.."
He looked back at where the portal- or Rift, apparently- had been and sighed again. "I'm not from here though. Like.. I've never heard of Thedas. Is that your world or your country or what?" He ran his hand through his hair, dragging back the long shaggy locks before wincing. "If you don't believe me, I have proof that I was being attacked."
He turned fully around so the stranger could see his shredded shirt and he yanked it off so he could see the scratch. "Trust me, if that thing had been any faster or that Rift hadn't been there, I would've been cut to ribbons. So.." Gesturing to the room and to the man in front of him, "I can't really complain about the alternative."
