Ready or Not|Talen'sul

[Northen Light36]

Acqua's out cold, but her face takes on a healthier colour as Alethia's healing takes effect and her own body's natural defenses kick in to fight the poison. Acqua's biggest problem when she wakes up will be surviving a few days of bed rest.

Amaro's all right. He's injured, but his wounds have been treated. Staying a little back from the wind fighters, fully aware that trained warriors tend to have little tolerence for mercs and having better things to do then exchange contempt under a mask of polite words, Amaro makes his way through the crowds, looking for his family.

Flash and Saph grin cheerfully at each other, having taken care of their wounds theirselves, and break away from the celebrations to go find the women they love.

"Amaro!"

Talon runs up and nearly bowls the man over as he embraces him, laughing. He, like most of the other warriors, was experiencing a high from their victory.

Salacia was going to order Twilight back into the palace to rest and tend to himself, but couldn't bring herself to do it. She hadn't seen him so care free with strangers in a long time, and so instead devoted herself to finding Flash and fussing over him lovingly.

"Do you think they're really gone?" Lya asked Shadow as she embraced her husband tightly. "Is it over?"

Shadow lovingly wraps an arm around his wife. "This battle is," he replies, but not wanting to give her false hope, he adds, "We have a powerful enemy in Mathew, Lya. We beat him today, and I suspect it will take him a long time to recover from that, but he'll be back." Smiling though, Shadow kisses his wife. "Don't worry though, when he gets the strength to crawl back out of his hole, we'll be ready for him. Right now the only things you and I need to worry about is cleaning up whatever mess Mathew left us in Maelstrom and bringing our daughter home before the Fires can corrupt her too much."

"King Shadow!" Ann protests, the child being near enough to overhear. "We won't corrupt Lumi." She giggles as Damien strides over and lifts up his child.

"We'd just improve the child," Damien adds with a smirk. Shadow rolls his eyes and tightens his hold on his wife.

"Oof, Talon, careful," Amaro mock growls, shoving his friend and brother lightly even as he looks the wind over for injuries. "You all right, Talon? Seen Alethia or the kids anywhere yet?"

[Kender Bard]

"I'm fine," he says turthfully. He'd been very nimble out there, and though his body count was modest in comparison to most Winds, he didn't have any 'badges of honor' to prove his deeds. He liked it that way. "Acqua was badly hurt though. Alethia's with the Water healers, and is taking care of her. I hope she'll be okay. I'm glad you are." He tilts his head. "I'll take you to her. Knowing Alethia, Acqua will be patched up and well again in no time. But I'd like to keep my family together right now."

[Northen Light36]

"If Acqua's with Alethia, she's safe," Amaro replies. "Go join them Talon. I need to find Vortai then we'll join you." Amaro starts to walk off then pauses and looks back at Talon, "I'm glad you haven't gotten yourself killed, I just want to make sure my other kid brother has managed the same thing." With that Amaro walks off to find his other sibling as around him other families are also regrouping.
