Re: Part 7 - The morning after the evening before
Eilieen sighs heavily at the mention of her wound scarring. But then, perhaps a sufficiently large scar might keep the other priests at bay should she ever return to the temple...well, no. Probably cause her no end of problems. She cocks an eyebrow, one corner of her mouth twitching as Aarnr attempts to mends his vocabulary, then breaks into a sunny smile as he retrieves a bucket and fills it with bright, sparkling water. "Oh, Aarnr!" The priestess had neglected that divine magic herself, from a need to heal and help the others. "That's so kind of you - such a gentleman!" Bowbe's bellowing blasphemer receives a pat on the cheek for his trouble, then Eilieen closes her eyes and whispers.
"Zadastha, repay this kindness with your own; seal away the last of his wounds that he might enjoy this bright new day."
Light flares about her palm as Fergus awakes. Sweeping the bucket from Aarnr, Eilieen plunks it down beside the injured farmer. "Ah, poor Fergus. We live, all of us." Though the Nameless One does not...and his sister? What of that? Perhaps a reason this man travels with them. "Fear not - I hold something for the pain of your body, with the hopes it helps relieve the wounds in your heart." Another touch, this one to the once-farmer, and her hands again shine. "Zadastha, touch this one with your love and care; sooth his hurts that he might step further into the light."
Power flares once more, and the farmer finds his injuries much improved.
"And yet, my work is not finished. Hold steady, Fergus. Breakfast comes soon." Gathering up her bucket, Eilieen quick-steps over to the bawling Bilfro, gently reaching out to touch his much-maligned manuel. "Bilfro...I know not if this will suffice, but I shall make an attempt. Zadastha," she prays. "Mend this wizard's tome, that he may weave spells to bring hope to this world."
A flare of light and power; what it brings, she cannot say.
"And now, perhaps," she states with a weary smile, "I might avail myself of Colwyn's cleverness and Aarnr's altruism. In private."
OOC - Healing Aarnr, 7 points. Healing Fergus, 11 points. :)
Casting 'Mending' on the spellbook. I have no idea what it'll do - shouldn't explode, or anything, but I don't know if it'll work. Still, worth a try!
