Lecta's body tenced, and a laugh escaped her lips"Forgive me...I just cant help myself..I'm to...flirtatious..."she admitted. Her grandmother had pushed her hair out of her face and kissed her forehead"Elweyym can you please get someone to bring me a boal of cold water and a rag, she's getting a fever..."Astai sighed and stared up at the Astromancer.

" Of course, As soon as possible milady", he said as he left the room

The group stared at me as i exited the room. I decided to let them think for a few minutes while i got the bowl and rag...
----
after i'd given the bowl to Astai, I stood outside the door. waiting for somebody to ask me a question. Obviously, they must have questions. such as, where did you come from?, or What happened to lecta?, and of course, your a healer?? that was the model for anybody to follow when asking me questions after a healing. Generally i went to those who least expected me. Being an astromancer, people had alot of questions about their future's as well. Not many astromancers existed in these lands, at least, not the lands he'd traveled through.

Serobi exits the room and waits for someone to clearly explain things to him. Lecta was sick for some reason and nobody was aware of it. Once the elf had left the room in which Lecta layed, Serobi approached him.
"What happened to Lecta?" he demands for the answer. "Why is she sick?"
He knew that Lecta's injuries from a previous encounter were healed but never expected for poison to have been injected to her within a short notice. Whatever the poison, they would need a sample of it, if possible.

"Fine question my friend," of course...."But first let me introduce myself. I am Eleyym, astromancer, and healer. Lecta was poisoned by the undead doctor. I almost lost her, but she'll be fine now. We just won't be doing any traveling any time soon. I'm sorry....", i figured this was a good start.

"Is that so?" he mumbles. "That undead was pretty quick. Within a span of a few minutes, he injected poison into her body. That makes me wonder if the military pill had actually worked in reducing the damage."
Serobi formed his fists in anger to his incompetence. He was not quick enough to save her, but its seems that nobody could ever be quick enough to save her. If they ambushed the Blood elves by the gate, the authorities of Xiphos would have punished them by now.

"Don't worry my friend", i tried to console him," She's fine. hopefully, healing won't take as long as it did to find...," the group stared at me lividly. now is the time to tell them...here goes...", I have become part of your quest party recently. I am now the astromantic protector of Lecta, my mistress...", i told everyone. All of them seemed confused...Understandably. I'd seen this coming of course, but the feelings were always new to me...Visions only tell you so much...

"Recently?" he says. "That means that you have made arrangements with Lecta when we were waiting by the portal, am I correct? I have no knowledge what you mean of astromantic protector but I assume that you will be the bodyguard now, not us."
Draku gave out a sigh, knowing that their quest will be on hold because of Lecta's condition. However, the stay might be useful for training.

"You are correct...You are still allowed to stay with us, but by my oath i am bound to protect her, and heal her when necessary. An astromancer is allowed to protect One person throughout his lifetime. If he see's somebody in the near future in trouble, he may go and give his blood-oath to that person. I have chosen Lecta as my charge. She accepted, and now our fates are bound to eachother, no matter what..."
He hopes the others would accept this willingly. Perhaps they would not respond well to a strange elf joining their party at random...But it was too late now...No turning back

The cold damp cloth to her forehead made her gasp in shock. She trembled and a wimper passed thru her lips"I-Its so cold..."she groaned. Staring up at her grandmother, but was shushed when she had placed a fingure to her lips
"Shh, rest little one..."she whispered and smiled weakly"Your not healthy enough to do anything yet...your friends can stay with us for aslong as they wish...", Lecta smiled weakly and released a sigh"Realy grandmother...?"she whispered and rubbed her eyes"Even if two of them are human?","Yes...even if some are human...".

"Astai has graciously given us quarters for as long as we need. We shall stay in Meldonar until Lecta is recuperated enough to travel. Perhaps we all need a break from all the exciting events taken place recently,"i told everyone. " we all needed rest..."I'll tell you my story later, after we've all had some sleep".

"Since that oath has been created, we cannot refuse. As an elf," he says. "I trust your word. The royal majesty must have also accepted this oath of yours but will she allow her to continue in her travels?"
Serobi leaned against a nearby marble pillar. It would be an advantage for the group to have an astromancer among them so Serobi accepted him, knowing he would have no regrets.

"Majesty Astei knows at least. As far as i am concerned, however, the oath cannot be refuted anymore, whether she agree's or not. As for traveling, it will take much persuasion, but we have time for that. It could take a few weeks for Lecta to regain her strength. Blood Purifying takes alot of energy out of the patient...She needs rest and a peaceful place to stay. Perhaps soon she will regain her level-headedness, but for now we will remain here, waiting for her to heal", I answered. It was good that at least one of them trusted him. Trust right now was a vital element in this quest, this I knew from recent fortunes...The future of this world depended on how this party got along....

"Well, there is no longer any point in waiting in here for a week right?"he says and slides his back to the ground. "Where do we stay for the night?"
Serobi was tired. In this quest of theirs, he barely got any rest. Hopefully, his quarters would at least have something comfortable in it.
