It's odd, being a mage from the Circle. Though the idea made his skin crawl, Strange expected to spend the rest of his life in the White Spire, under the eyes of the Templars. It was only recently that he set off on his own ergo only recently that he had to learn things like 'survival skills'.

"We certainly weren't coddled in the White Spire. But it's different than being out in the wilderness like this."
