Comments

[lawfuloblivious]

[ Injury wasn't something new to Torth. He was quite used to taking the brunt of the damage as protector of the party, sometimes even toeing the line between life and death. Fighting the undead wasn't new either -- it was his mission to destroy that which would extinguish the light of the world, and the undead fell squarely under that. However, the sheer number of ghouls and zombies they had been ambushed by was far more than the duo could have predicted.

He'd used half his magic calling upon the divine energy within himself to smite some of the more dangerous undead out of existence, and the other half for healing, but in the end, it hadn't been enough. Near the very end of battle, the paladin had transposed himself between the ghoul and its target, Elden, taking a very nasty gash to his side for his troubles, and without any magic left, he was unable to heal it.

He just couldn't let Elden suffer any injuries though. Oracle he may be, but when Torth looked at him, wavering voice and hands shaking as he tended to the paladin's injuries, all Torth could see was a boy far too young to be confronted with these horrors. There was no doubt that Elden had suffered greatly in his childhood, but Torth could still recall being an obnoxious, sheltered knight-in-training when he was that age. It just didn't sit right with him, that Elden had suffered far more than he, but he didn't dare voice his worries out of disrespect.

Instead, he brought a hand up and placed it on Elden's head, smiling in reassurance. ]

It's because of diseases like Ghoul Fever that I have this blessing, and I thank my Lord every day for it.

[ And then he winces as Elden applies an ointment on one of the many cuts on his body. So much for appearing to be strong. ]

[spitefullight]

You still shouldn't have thrown yourself between me and it. I have defences for that kind of thing, remember?

[ He might sound a bit pouty about it, even a little annoyed. His powers of life gave him protection from the undead, at least enough where it would cause such creatures harm if they touched him. But, in those final moments of the battle when he was that flaming golden white elemental of life, it ended. He can't stop kicking himself for activating it so soon. If he had just waited a little longer Torth might not have thrown himself between them.

Getting involved in this he was suppose to be a bit smarter about all of this. He supposes it's just another thing he would need to work on, from his impatience to his planning ahead. He's so lost in these thoughts as he continues to brush the ointment over Torth's wounds when he's caught off guard from the head pat. Even if they're smiling and offering reassurance Elden can't help but frown in response. ]

I can't revive you though if you die. I'm not...I'm not that strong yet. [ After all, he's the dedicated healer. It's his job to keep people up and running.

He sighs a bit though at Torth's wincing; ]

Sorry, it's the best we've got right now 'til I get some rest. [ Now would come the bandages as he begins to bind those wounds. ]

[lawfuloblivious]

Even if that may be the case, I couldn't let it pass uncontested.

[ And also because he couldn't bear the possibility of letting Elden come to harm. Despite what the Oracle was saying, his defensive spell had already ended at that point. Had the ghoul come in contact with Elden, Torth was sure the boy wouldn't have fared as well as he did.

He could see how impatient Elden was, how he sometimes failed to plan ahead or account for the enemy's actions. Things that he himself did once before, when he was that age. It was all too familiar, and only drove the urge to protect the boy even more. Almost to the point of coddling, but no, he knew that was not a good idea. Elden was a warrior in his own right and he had to grow as one.

He chuckles at the implication of Elden's words. ]

Do you think I would throw myself into death's hands? I fight to live and protect. You needn't worry about that.

[ More headpats for you, although this time he's going ruffle Elden's hair a bit. Silly boy.

He shifts to make it easier for Elden to wrap the bandages around his torso.]

Thank you, Elden. I truly appreciate it.

[spitefullight]

[ So that thing about teenagers? They can be definitely surly and moody when adults seem to act like everything's fine when things were not.

Like now. He definitely was getting the feeling that Torth wasn't taking this as seriously as it was. Even going so far to the fact that Elden felt like he was being treated like a child. So when Torth goes to ruffle his hair, he'll feel Elden smacking the hand away. ]

Stop it. Just-Just stop it. [ He was already feeling bitter and angry about what happened and the gravity of it felt like it wasn't being acknowledged here. ]

Do you know what would've happened to me if you freaking died out there? I'd die too. You throwing yourself in front of me like that was beyond stupid! [ He says it, his voice soon raising into a shout. ]

I could barely carry you up here! So, next time...next time don't do that.

Lets just run if it happens. [ He emphasizes it just as he pulls the bandages tighter. ]

[lawfuloblivious]

[ Torth's eyes widen as Elden smacks his hand away furiously. That hadn't been the reaction he was expecting. He'd meant it when he said he wasn't going to die, but Elden must have interpreted his words another way, if his reaction was any indication.

Torth withdraws his hand, looking contrite. He didn't expect to be lectured by the young Oracle, but he had a point. He winces again as Elden pulls on the bandages, but voices no complaint. ]

I was being serious when I said I had no intention of dying, but... I recognize that I can be a little reckless at times. You must have been terrified.

[ He wants to reach over to Elden to reassure him again, but he's not sure it'll be welcome this time. So he fidgets with his hands a little as he looks down at them. ]

...I'm sorry. I promise this won't happen again.

[ Because he can't be so reckless, not like he usually is. Because Elden was relying on him to be his shield. Because Elden was a bright light in a sea of stars, and he'd sworn an Oath to protect the light. ]

[spitefullight]

[ From being tired, injured and above all frustrated he couldn't really help it. He always gets angry when he's upset. It's the only way he's ever been able to get such feelings out. With all of it surmounting though? He can't help but feeling his eyes beginning to sting a bit. He's quick to at least rub at his eyes to try and smear the coming tears away.

He sighs at little at the promise, because, he's not even sure Torth would keep it. It would be in their nature to probably do it again. After all, they probably wouldn't be travelling together if they both weren't brash. ]

You're the only one I've got, Torth. There's no one else.

[ He says it a matter of fact. His hands tensing a bit. He gets another bit of of the ointment and looks over the wounds again. This wouldn't be a comfortable sleep for Torth and well...Elden wouldn't risk the paladin not resting enough.

He gives something of a sigh and mutters; ]

Guess there's nothing for it. [ Torth might not like it but he would have to deal. Since Elden's injuries hadn't been as serious he still had a lot more vitality. Which meant it'd be far easier to take some of these injuries on for Torth than letting them lie in it.

He won't even say anything, he'll just press his hand against Torth's chest and shut his eyes. In the glow of their campfire, a tether of gold light would form between them. With it it began to pulse as beads of light would travel down this tether from Elden to Torth and then back again.

He might not have any spells left, but he had his own life essence to still heal. Which he would do to at least ease the other man's pain. ]

[lawfuloblivious]

[ You're the only one I've got. Those words tug at his heartstrings, and he can't help but feel even more guilty for his actions during the ambush earlier. Perhaps he should trust Elden more, even if it would hurt to see him injured. Perhaps, even though he'd been telling himself not to coddle the young Oracle, he still was coddling him too much. He knew, on an intrinsic level, that he didn't feel like he could rely on Elden as much as he did some former companions. But that was due to age, not capability, and it was unfair to the raven-haired boy. ]

I'm sorry.

[ He could only say that again, but they felt hollow. Apologies wouldn't make up for the terror he put Elden through.

He blinks in surprise as Elden places a hand on his chest and a tether of golden light forms between them. Magic? But Elden said he was dry... This was a magic he was unfamiliar with, but it wasn't very hard to guess what was happening. He could feel his wounds healing, but at the same time, it seemed as if Elden was being... drained.


No. ]

Elden, stop! That's enough!!

[ He grips Elden's wrist and attempts to pull it off his chest, as if that would stop the spell. ]

[spitefullight]

[ It's not hard to pry the boy's hand off from their chest. After all, Elden was definitely not very strong. But, it didn't matter. The connection still remained strong between them. Elden winced a little, both from the pressure Torth was putting on his wrist, the other from giving apart of his vitality to heal them.

He narrows his eyes through gritted teeth and just says; ]

Just shut up and let me heal you. [ He would give enough to at up to at least half of what he had before finally severing the link.

The gold thread between them shattering into motes of light leaving Elden gasping a little bit. It definitely took something out of him, but it was worth the risk. He breathes again before looking at Torth.]

If we get attacked I'm going to need you to fight. There's no way around it.

[lawfuloblivious]

[ Torth frowns when the golden tether stays, and while he lessens the pressure on Elden's wrist, he keeps his grip to monitor Elden's health as the magic proceeds to siphon the Oracle's life force and give it to him.

Torth stares back at Elden, eyes narrowing as well in disapproval. But he doesn't speak, only sets his mouth in a firm line. And when the tether shatters and dissipates, some of the tension is relieved from his shoulders. Elden looked paler, winded and tired, but still in relatively good health. He himself felt better, he could not deny that, but he couldn't be happy about the situation.

He couldn't deny Elden's logic either, as much as he wants to protest. Elden is right -- he couldn't afford to be down for even a moment. Not when it's just the two of them alone in this.

After a moment of tense silence, Torth's shoulders sag and he sighs, letting go of Elden's wrist. ]

Get some rest, Elden. I'll take up first watch.

[ ... ]

And... thank you for the healing.

[spitefullight]

[ He can disapproval all he wanted but Elden knew this was better for them in the long run. He's still thankful though that Torth doesn't voice is distaste it's not something he wants to hear or needs right about now.

When his wrist is finally free, he rings it out for a moment to rid the tension in it. The tension seems to at least defuse for now at the insistence of Torth for him to sleep.

He still can't help but give a smug little grin at the thanks. ]

All right, wake me up for the next one. And your welcome.

[ Oops he's sound smug. ]

[lawfuloblivious]

[ Yeah, yeah, be smug all you want. He'll let you have it for now. For now.

There's a moment where the thought of not waking Elden for watch whatsoever flits across his mind. But then he reevaluates the idea, and decides against it. As much as he wants Elden to get a good rest, the situation called for the two to share equal burden. If he were to waste Elden's healing on exhaustion, that would be even worse. ]

I will. Now sleep.

[ And he'll turn towards the cave entrance and check on the condition of his equipment. When he determines that it's of satisfactory condition, he dons his armor and positions his shield and hammer nearby, to be grabbed at a moment's notice. ]

[spitefullight]

[ Elden had bedded down at Torth's instruction having felt he won the argument for the time being.

It's unfortunate for him he went to sleep first. Today's events, it only brought him back to the war in Fellengar. The countless undead swarming the streets, battle after endless battle. They were worn out, most of their capabilities expanded save for the last few dregs of power.

The dream plays it vividly; several morhgs surrounding Xandar who was facing off against a tiefling necromancer. Three powerful creatures between them and him. His group advances and begins to come to Xandar's aid things seem to turn in their favour.

Until their leader falls and is torn to shreds by the very creatures they swore to fight. Watching him turn into the undead things became worse for them. Elden saw his friends get grabbed, valiantly trying to stave off finishing blows. He saw Theron trying his hardest to pick each one off with his bow but still the unnatural life given to these creatures kept them alive.

He had kept his eyes forward he didn't see the one that had crept behind Andrew. The screams alerted them to the attacker only to see the morhg strangling the life out of Andrew. Elden hadn't realized it hurt Andrew had been and tried to damage the undead with his channel. He knew it was the wrong move the moment Andrew was torn asunder. Skin ripping and peeling back, organs spilling and rotting onto the ground. Only for a skeleton with disgusting purple growths coming out of it to replace where their companion stood.

He remembered in that moment how much he was screaming. Screaming at the loss of Xandar. Screaming at the loss of Andrew.

He hadn't even realized he was screaming right now in his sleep. Thrashing about as the nightmare continued to take hold of him. ]

[lawfuloblivious]

[ Torth was a petty man, and he wasn't about to limit it to kids like Elden. He had it planned out -- a little splash of water on the oracle's face to wake him. It would be harmless fun and revenge for the healing trick he pulled. (Inwardly, he lamented that Elden didn't have longer hair. Otherwise, he would have liked to braid it and see how long it took the boy to notice.)

However, as he settled into his watch, keeping a close eye on the entrance, he could hear some shuffling coming from Elden's bed roll. He glances over for a moment. A nightmare, probably. With everything they'd been through, it wasn't a surprising occurrence. Torth was about to turn his attention back to the cave entrance when the shuffling turned into violent thrashing, accompanied by groans and whimpers. And then.

Screaming.

Torth immediately abandoned his station and rushed over to the sleeping boy, grabbing his shoulders and trying to shake him out of his nightmare. ]

Elden, wake up! Elden!!

[spitefullight]

[ He still keeps thrashing about, screaming and yelling. In his dreams he see's himself getting grabbed by the morhg that had formally been his friend. It's creepy tongue lulling out of it's hollow head laughing at him.

'Just one kiss' it told him. One kiss and it would be all over. The screaming only got louder until he finally snapped out of his sleep. In a cold sweat, he stopped thrashing about eyes darting about. Finally, they focused in on Torth above him, pulling him into wakefulness.

He breathes heavily, taking in a few short breaths, muscles tense before his shoulders finally give and relax. ]

I-
Sorry. Bad dream. [ More like terrifying dream. ]
