Ninian gasped, covering her mouth with a hand. The brief glimpse she'd gotten of Siegell's chest had shocked her. Obviously, he'd met with Nils's frosttongue at some point, and it hadn't helped. Yes, Father Renault had just healed the Wyvern Lord, but some wounds took time to heal, especially the worse ones.
"I--I'm sorry," she stammered, looking at the floor. "Those wounds . . . they must hurt." She squeezed her hands together. "They're my fault. . . . If only I'd been able to save Nils sooner. . . ."
Why did she have to be so weak? Why could she only dance? Her dances were to honor life, but how could she honor life when it was her weakness that kept putting her friends--her family--in danger?
"I'm sorry, Siegell. . . ."
She couldn't hold back the tears, and she hated herself for it.

So far, everything seemed normal again. Except that Alihi and the others had yet to return. He was getting tired of just standing around, so he found a chair to sit on and strapped his Steel Lance with his Javelin onto his back. He was tempted to just go and put them both away, but he felt he'd need them still.

Uneasy, Victoria got up from the place she was resting. Sitting by and doing nothing was what got her brothers and sisters killed at the abbey. Not her.
She had to help Alihi and the others, even if they weren't formally introduced. What were introductions, anyhow? They didn't matter if you were saving a person's life. Grabbing her Divine tome, she ventured into the Fefga manor's storage. There... she found it.
A staff that was a step below legendary, that would surely help her ease the wounds of her new Order. The Recover staff. Much like an elixir, it treated all wounds, minor and major. It worked just as fast, especially with an experienced person like herself.
"I'm going to find the rest of our comrades." she stated. "Now, who's with me?"
Of course, ironically, as soon as she said that, they'd all probably come busting through the door.

(Yaay) When Aran heard Victoria's words, he left that chair and said "I'm in, theres plenty of people here to defend the Manor" He wasn't really doing anything anyways. It didn't matter if they were already on their way back, he was going anyway.

"A lone soldier, who's had no action. You look like you'll do well to escort me." Victoria smiled. "Since people think it's so important to give my name first before talking to them, I'll tell you. I'm Victoria, former bishop of Etruria, and I now serve Eyris. And you are?"
{It's almost like a recruitment convo all over again! XD Only I'm already a 'blue unit' because of joining Renny earlier.}

(Haven't Vicky and Aran met before? : o Anyways this reminds me of how Aran was recruited by Laura in RD.) I'm Aran, I used to be a Soldier back in Tellius and I ended up here."

(I don't remember them meeting. Too many members and too many pages. OTL)
"Now that's out of the way... so. Are you prepared to head out? I believe I have all I need right here." The bishop told him.

(Okay, not officialy met but seen each other before at least)Aran checked some of his pockets, making sure he had some Vulnarys and Herbs just in case. He unstrapped his Steel Lance, careful not to poke anyone. "Yeah, I have everything I need."
(EDIT: I don't know :s Maybe we can post in Unleashed Tornado? Because I don't know if making a new thread would be a good idea since almost everyone is returning.)

(Well now it's official. 8D)
"I brought my elixirs with me too. I'm unsure how many are unaccounted for, but I remember some names. Abel. Alihi... Ganon, and Aidan. And who knows if the Castle Guard are returned to normal. If they are.. we should bring them back for treatment as well."
(Should I make a new topic? None of the crew are here for me to ask! D: )

(We'll have to do it later then, cause I gotta go and not many people are on.)
"Hmm... I remember Alihi, Ganon, Blossom, and two new guys named Chad and Ephraim going as well. I think I have a few remedies for them though."

(Now that I think of it, we should probably just head over to their thread.)
"I'll put it this way though. As a soldier, you must be experienced in the ways of war. We'll help.. whoever survived." The bishop told him. After all, she had to accept that the Goddess couldn't revive the dead long ago.

... It was a very, very long walk for Alihi, which left her out of breath and surprised that she was actually able to do it without falling flat on her face. It was her stubbornness and concern (more the latter) that motivated her to keep moving, and now that she was at the front porch of the manor, all she really wanted to do was collapse and rest.
She still had to get inside and get Abel healed, though. She groaned softly; she couldn't effectively turn the door-knob without letting go of Abel, and, well... she wasn't about to let go of Abel.
So, she had to call and hope someone heard her. "H-hey! Can someone open the door, please?" She shouted as clearly as she could while still breathing heavily. "I kind of got my arms full..."

Hearing voices outside, Victoria, who was just ready to exit the manor opened the door hastily. Although she never met either of them personally, she did recognize Alihi and Abel, both in terribly bad shape.
"Well, I guess we don't have to leave for these two." the bishop said to Aran who was prepared to set out with her, while pulling out her recover staff. "Lady Tactician, you wish me to heal this man first, don't you? He looks on the brink of life."
Calling out the Recover staff's name, Victoria channeled the magic from within herself to the wounded mercanary. Its light was large, even moreso than the Mend staff.
{Ahh, wrong account again. D:}

Alihi nodded frantically. "P-please do..." She sighed in relief when the bishop pulled out the Recover staff. He'd surely be alright... right? "The others are still back there, I believe... I kind of just... erm..." A pang of guilt suddenly hit the tactician and she was unable to finish the rest of her sentence. She left without a hesitation to insure Abel's safety when there were others hurt as well? How completely irresponsible of her!
Then again... she had panicked. The others were alive, which she was confident about. She knew that Aidan wouldn't let Blossom die, so that took care of that worry, and all the others really weren't injured enough to die.
But when Abel went limp... it was like her mind shut down. She had to make sure he was alright, because she was the one who stabbed him!
It was justified... right?

For a moment, Victoria was there, watching as the staff's aura covered Abel until the blue glow stopped radiating from the gem. "I've done all I can do for him... let me use this on you now, and carry him the rest of the way inside."
Her gaze shifted to Aran. "The others might still need us... and we also might run into them on the way to their battlefield from here... so the wise thing to do is to go just outside..."
As her staff healed Alihi, Victoria prepared to leave soon after to aid the other fighters.
~Edit
However, her mind just couldn't be eased by staying. There were more of them out there. More. People whom were trapped in fear, just like her brothers and sisters. Smiling, Victoria drew her staff back from Alihi. "Take care of yourself and that mercanary. We'll be right back. Aran, I changed my mind. We're going."
With that, the bishop and the soldier took their exit of Fefga's, into the battlefield that was Eyris.
