Getting up slowly Christopher looked at Ilandere
"Ilandere, have you chosen your path, Is it with Saint Dane? Ilandere you fool have you learned nothing? Ilandere, I'm sorry I couldn't save you."
Christopher with a arrow in his back turned around to the flume but fell down on the ground wondering how Artemis was so strong.

Ilandere stood rigid as Artemis left. What had come over him? He seemed suddenly so different. Something wasn’t right – but now it was out of her hands; not her problem. He had left, leaving her no burdens – she no longer belonged to the traveler group.
“That fool.” Saint Dane said behind her, “Artemis is pushing too far. He shall receive his coming.”
Taking a step forward, he rested a hand on Ilandere’s shoulder and bent to whisper in her ear, “This is not yet over, need I remind you. A traveler still lies before you. You do what was asked of you and I shall complete my end of it. Do what you will with Christopher, it makes no difference to me. After, you may go home again, and rest – but be ready should I call on you . . . we’ve begun the battle.”
Saint Dane left her side and went to Themba’s body, lifting it and disappearing into the darkness. Ilandere looked to Christopher as he spoke and remained impassive. Seeing him collapse, she knelt next to him, his words still replaying in her mind.
“It is not I who needs saving.” She said to him, “But it is I that regrets being unable to save you. In time, you shall see what I mean – but until then . . .”
Ilandere pinched the nerve cluster at the base of his neck and unconsciousness was immediate. Feeling his body relax she lifted him over her shoulder, and though he was much older and larger than she, her strong body carried him with some ease. She would return home, care for Christopher’s wound, and then let herself rest. From there, she had no clue what would happen, especially with Christopher now that they were enemies in a sense.
Ilandere ignored her frightened thoughts of the future and concentrated on what was happening then. She could go home again . . . it was so long since she had been there; it was almost unimaginable to be able to go back. Stealthily walking through air passageways so she wouldn’t be seen, she made her way back to her quaint house and slipped inside.

Artemis returned to Third Earth. The second he got out, he dropped his sythe, and turned around to wait for the flume to reactivate. Devon walked up behind him and looked toward the flume as well.
He said in the same deep voice, turning back to normal,"I guess it didn't work."

Christopher even with a arrow in his back could still hear Saint Dane and Ilandere talking. Then he was being picked up being taken to wherever just hoping that it wasn't his grave.

Ilandere stepped inside her house and quickly closed the door. Gazing around, she’d wondered how long she had really been gone since she first went to Cloral. It can’t have been that long, could it?
Throwing a rough cloth on the floor, Ilandere laid Christopher upon it on his chest and tore his shirt where the arrow was. She went to her medic cabinet and pulled out several things, then knelt on the floor next to Christopher. She poured a numbing serum around the arrow so he wouldn’t feel it as she pulled it out. But it wouldn’t be as simple as just pulling it out.
Working tediously for several minutes, Ilandere got the arrow out and cleaned the wound. It wasn’t exactly a shallow wound, but at the same time wasn’t grievously deep. Wrapping his shoulder tightly, she stood and put her supplies away. Lifting Christopher once more she moved him to the padded corner of the other room that served as a guest bed.
Caring for Christopher probably wasn’t what Saint Dane had meant by ‘finishing her task,’ but he hadn’t specified, so she didn’t care. It would take a lot for her to change her ways. She was a cold person, but not heartless. She couldn’t just leave a hurt person to die. If it was wrong of her to help an ‘enemy’ then she would gladly face punishment for it, otherwise hurting someone who was once a comrade and leaving them was punishment enough.
Ilandere stood tiredly and went to a corner, too exhausted for thought. Sitting and leaning against the wall she closed here eyes and rested her head. The familiar sounds, smells, and feelings of her home surrounded her comfortingly and she quickly drifted into sleep.

Christopher woke up several hours later with his shirt riped and a bandage around his shoulder and wound. Christopher did not recognize his surroundings. While trying to get up he felt a sharp pain where the arrow had been, laying back down he heard random noises. Christopher then wondered where he was at, and why he was here.

Ilandere stirred a bit in her sleep, her dreams awakening her slightly. She opened an eye to check on Christopher. Seeing that Christopher was still lying where she had left him, she closed her eyes and went back to sleep.

((Eh, nope. The role for traveler of Eelong is still open. Just PM Cyra Hakkai your profile and she'll probably fit you in . . . but there's also the other RP that you're in. I never heard back from you, do you still want to keep your character for back for blood?))

((Ah, I see. Well then, if it's something like that, I request that Christopher keeps his memory. It would make things really hard if he totally blanked out. But I'm just asking. You do what you want.))
