Small, wet sounds could be heard as Varian breathed around the blood in his nostrils, feeling its warmth trail in marring lines down his fur. His blood had a sort of shimmer to it, making it seem to almost glow, though not quite. The stallion felt Yuni's head under his, and with a grunt, he heaved himself to his feet, bells chiming violently as he staggered before extending his wings to catch his balance.
