********* After a fashion, to me it means 'sort of'. I hadn't 
picked up on that phrase, well spotted. DD may be implying that 
he has returned from his ordeal in the cave in less than full 
DD capacity, ie: underpowered. The potion/poison he drank has 
rendered him physically weak, and he has returned but knows he's 
vulnerable.
