"Thank you. And it will. In a week's time you'll have no idea that I was ever even injured." He sat down in the dirt, "Gali, you will have to pack the hole, since your saliva is closer to mine. Just pick up the dirt...spit in it...and shove it in the hole. Pack it tightly..."

Gali looked a bit grossed out but nodded and did as he instructed "Is that good?" Packing it in as tightly as she could

"Yes...Thank you...Do you know where your father got off to?"

Wolfram walked over with a couple pony's trailing behind "I'm right here... I wasn't sure how many you needed..."

"Two will suffice. I can rise in a couple of days' time and resume hunting." He eyed the first, "Do you give your life freely so that I may live, and in my living so that Gali might live?"

Yuri frowned and looked at Wolfram "Does that mean he's going to kill them?"
Wolfram shrugged and whispered back "I wasn't sure so I got a couple of expendable servants"
"Wolf thats horrible!"
"Better than you volunteering.."
The servant nodded nervously "Anything for the Princess and her mate.."

"Then please extend your wrist." He didn't wait for the servant to do so, he grabbed it and tore it open, draining the first of most of the life giving liquid and sealed the wound with a flick of his tounge. "Next?"

The other servant stepped over... looking more pale than the first but obediently held their wrist out.
Wolfram frowned "Damn still alive... now I really do have to give the bonuses..."
Yuri slapped his husband "You're horrible."

Ade took freely from this one, sealing the wound in the same way and pushing him away. Galiena...I do not want to risk upsetting your parents and having you suffer while I sleep...but I love you. I should rise in two days' time, but do not come to me until I have fed. I trust my resting place will be well guarded. Ade stood and brushed a kiss on Gali's forehead, "I am indebted to you both." He bowed slightly at the waist, looking a little healthier as he opened a large hole in the ground and floated down in, stopping his organs as he closed the chasm and settling into the dead sleep of his people.

Gali froze and frowned. She couldn't feel Ade anymore. She watched him go to ground... he said he'd come back but... he felt.. dead. She could feel a little bit of panic setting in and she settled down by where Ade lay.
"Gali? Are you coming inside?"
She shook her head "Staying here.." Hugging her knees to her chest.
Yuri and Wolfram exchanged puzzled glances but set up a quick schedule so she wouldn't be in the courtyard alone ever.

As the sun went down on the second day, Ade's heart began to flutter to life beneath the earth. He spewed up through the confining soil, whole and somewhat replenished, though voraciously hungry. After the task of finding nourishment, he returned to the courtyard. Galiena?

'I'm here...' She was sitting by the now gaping hole in the dirt, still in the same position 'That... was horrible. I see why you were upset about it. You ARE alive right? Your not still dead?'

Come and feel my heart beat if you have any doubts. He waved the hole closed, long strides eating up the ground between them.

She took a shaky breath and stood abit wobbly as feeling came back to her legs "Ick.. pins and needles.." Then hugged him close, listening to his heartbeat and giving a small sigh of relief 'Ok.. your alive. Thats.. good..'
Yuri came out with some soup and froze at the sight "Oh good your up. Did you eat or do you need something more? Gali will you come inside now and eat a meal?"

I am very much alive, and very much hungry for you. He nodded politely to Yuri, "I thank you for taking care of Gali." Ade turned to her and tilted her chin up to him, "You have not eaten? This is not healthy. You will eat now, before anything else is done."
