Darkness.
Groan. Fuck, my mouth felt like it was filled with cotton. What happened? Where was I?
I was laying on something soft and something warm and soft was to my right. It smelled like Rengosa.
Forcing my eyes open, I blinked in the dark. I was in a room of stone, laying in a bed, a fireplace burning happily.
Only one of my eyes opened, something was wrapped around my head. I had gotten hurt.
I didn't hurt, but somehow, I had gotten hurt. What happened?
I didn't remember.
Turning my head, I nuzzled softly at Rengosas long blue hair, "Mmm."
She stirred and then quickly shifted to look at me, "Hey."
"Hey," I answered with a small smile, "What happened?"
She rolled onto her side, brushing my hair out of my face, "What do you remember?"
"I…"
We had gone to a Plane. We had met somebody. Planeswalker.
Elf.
Sakila.
I sighed, "Most I think. We tried to leave, Sakila attacked us. I'm a bit fuzzy on the details though. I assume she got a good hit in."
Rengosa nodded, "I had just gotten Sheila safely away. She managed to attack you by a plant elemental. I managed to dive in to snatch you away before it killed you," she said quietly and scooted closer, "…You were badly hurt."
"How badly?"
"Badly."
I looked and suddenly I was very happy that I felt numb. Halfway up from the elbow, my left arm was missing.
"My eye?"
"Damaged," Rengosa said softly and rested her head against my shoulder, "Half a dozen broken ribs, both your legs were broken and so was your right arm. Your left arm was missing."
Damn.
"Everything else?"
"Mostly healed," she said and stroked my cheek, "But neither we, our hosts or our healing potions can do anything about the eye or arm."
I swallowed and nodded, "…It's fine. Alexstrasza or one of the Red can fix it. She healed damage just as bad as my eye on me before. Anyone watching?"
Ren looked down at the bed before she shook her head in answer so I raised my arm and channelled my magic, summoning Paladin.
She appeared in a flash of white magic and took one look at me before she started to cast healing magic.
I closed my eyes and let the golden magic flow over me. Suddenly I felt a lot better as smaller aches I had not even registered melted away and I felt like I could actually move.
Rubbing my face, I struggled to sit up, Rengosa growling at me for moving. This time however I ignored it. I needed to just do something. Anything.
Fuck, I had gotten my tail thoroughly kicked. I almost died. More importantly, Sheila and Ren almost died.
I rested my face against my hand. It had not even been close. Sakila had just demolished us, she just….
Nothing I did barely even slowed her down, she turned my armour into flower petals for fuck sake!
"…Where are we?" I finally asked and unsummoned Paladin, "How did we get here?"
Ren scooted up to sit next to me, "You Walked us, you don't remember?"
I shook my head, "No."
"…You were barely conscious. You were aiming for Ravnica…"
"Ravnica? That's way too far away from where we encountered Sakila and her people. I wouldn't do that in one Walk even if I was fully awake."
"Don't ask me, you said it was close."
Man, unconscious me was an idiot.
…More of an idiot.
"Where are we? Where is Sheila?"
Ren slipped an arm around my waist, "We're on the island fortress Kinloch Hold in the country known as Ferelden. We landed a day or so west of here, a group of Templars found and helped us here. Sheila is meeting with one of the leaders of this place, a mage named Irving."
"I see."
I moved to get up and the world seemed to object strongly against that with the way it wobbled and spun.
Ren quickly moved to stand, catching me and guiding me back onto the bed, "Atregos, we're safe. Lay down and rest, focus on getting better.
Rest.
Yeah, rest sounded nice.
Okay, room spinning. Might not have a choice in the matter.
