Enkar-The Horn Gate (Section 3) (2)

[cyberwing]

Talendra had cleared the foliage just in time to witness the whole scene and she stood with her mouth agape. 'N'mari?! Wow... I didn't know she could do that! Oh my goodness!' Talendra thought, sharing with N'yola. 'None of us did. She may not have known her self, sometimes our talents manifest when we NEED them, not before.' N'yola explained, even through her haze of pain. Talle was astounded but noticed Kilik was hurt.

 

[Quantum X]

Shadow and N'ashi came in time just to miss it. "Kilik are you alright?" He asked. He and Kilik hadn't spoken much, Kilik was quiet and withdrawn, and Shadow wasn't exactly a morphan either...

Kilik held his left arm now, blood dripped from his shirt. He talked with N'mari in mind but now looked up at Shadow.

"I need to stop this bleeding." Is all he really could think to say. He looked at the very clean open cut on his arm and all the blood that came from it. N'mari was beside herself, the amount of blood Kilik was losing terrified her.

 

[cyberwing]

Talendra walked forward and stood next to Kilik. "Impressive Kilik... you and N'mari both... however we need to get you to Polli and Xavier. Do you need help?" She waited but was ready to lead the way to the healers.

 

[Quantum X]

"Here, you these to try and stop the bleeding." Shadow said, bringing some clean rags out of N'ashi's saddle bags. He handed them to Kilik.

 

[cyberwing]

Talendra led the way. Polli was finishing up with Nolion and passed out back against Xavier.
"Xavier?! Kilik and Shadow are hurt too..." Talendra spoke with weariness.

 

[Link]

Kilik used the rags to temporarily bandage the wound. "This isn't the time to stop though, there still might be enemies near. We need a plan of action."

 

[cyberwing]

"We have to Kilik... we... we have lost some of our party... Naza the elf... he's dead. Nolion is hurt badly... you are hurt, N'yola is hurt too. I need to get everyone back in shape to face the next challenge and you are right... we might face it before we are healed up. Which is why we need to do this now. Shadow? Shadow, did you you find out anything from your opponent? You Kilik?" Talendra asked worriedly.

 

[Quantum X]

"Only that he might be coming back from the dead eventually." Shadow grumbled, rolling his eyes.

 

[cyberwing]

"Back from the dead?" Talle looked over at Shadow, incredulous shock on her face.

 

[Quantum X]

"Forget it." Shadow mumbled.

 

[cyberwing]

"That's not something to forget Shadow.... was it Narion, that guy that attacked us before we went on the ship? Is he the one that has been following us?" Talendra frowned at Shadow's attempt to dismiss such a cryptic message.

"I think we are getting very close to the ruins. Which means we probably are going to find more of the Black Mages around. Everyone let Polli and Xavier heal you. We are going to need our strength to make it. Check your bondeds, make sure they are not injured either..." Talendra directed and sat down aching from her multitude of bruises.

 

[Quantum X]

"Oh gee I don't know, I never checked!" Shadow growled. "I don't really know the guy came RIGHT OUT into the open and certainly sounded and looked like Nairon! Duh! I can't tell!" He scowled, ignoring N'ashi's protest at his comment.

 

[cyberwing]

Talendra raised an eyebrow at Shadow's curt response. "Look you don't need to come any further if that's what is bothering you Shadow. Kilik and I are the only ones that HAVE to go on." She crossed her arms and stared at him.

 

[Quantum X]

"I'm fine! Nothing's bothering me!" Shadow grumbled. 'Except you.' He thought.

 

[cyberwing]

Talendra frowned at Shadow and shook her head. His attitude left much to be desired and she did not understand his lack of discipline. The trained warrior turned away from him and sought out her bonded. The blood stained her white flank but she trusted Xavier and Polli to do something.
N'yola sighed and realized she needed to do something herself since the healers were occupied. She concentrated and wound from the arrow slowed its bleeding. N'yola however was almost completely cut off from Talendra and the young woman ran for her bonded fearing the worst.

 

[Ellesar]

N'rainor stayed close to N'yola, watching what she was doing. He heard Talle running toward them and said to Tolri, "Tell Talendra that N'yola is alright. It almost appears to be that she's healing herself..." Tolri had been following Talle and she now ran a few steps to catch up with the warrior. "Talle!" she called out and then relayed N'rainor's message.

 

[cyberwing]

N'yola stopped the bleeding but the wound still pained her greatly. She was now exhausted though and she trembled as she nosed N'rainor's neck. Talendra felt her bonded's pain come back through their link, while she was not happy she was in pain at least she knew N'yola was still with her.

Talendra listened to Tolri then nodded. She had felt as much through the link. She saw Polli coming toward them and was shocked but then she remembered Xavier had the Morphan's gifting so he probably had given her strength. Polli looked very tired but went straight to Kilik. She instructed him to lie down and rubbed her hands together. Placing them gently on Kilik's head she closed her eyes and began to humming hypnotically.

 

[Link]

Kilik was thinking about what needed to be done but before he knew what was happening Polli told him to lie down.

"No Polli, not right now."

 

[cyberwing]

Polli frowned and crossed her arms over her chest. "You are wounded Kilik! This is what I DO!" she put a ferocious pout on her face and glared up at him. Talendra stifled her laugh at the 'ferocious'- looking Morphan and looked away.
