The thing is, I didn't die nor was I being attacked
or chased. I was a few bubbles down on health due to
a previous fight (that ended) and when I rezoned in
the wrong place I was at full health. So that was
nifty at least - but at the time of hitting the zone,
I was nowhere near death and again, not being attacked.
