The castle Main Hall has been turned into a makeshift healing sanctuary, and all injured are brought inside. It is a dismal place, full of the deceased and dying, but it is as safe as possible, especially after the siege. It is the only sanctuary left.

Feel free to post here any time, you can break off into PRP or interact in ORP. This happens in the Main Hall. You can also attend to people's wounds etc (all done ICLy, doesn't actually affect HP)

Noah sat on a crate pushed against the wall and leaned back, closing his eyes for a moment. It seemed like the steady influx of wounded had slowed to a stop, and he was tired, and his hands were bloody and gross. He needed a rest and a wash. The rest he could maybe have, a little, but he didn't think he was getting a proper wash any time soon.
He did still have a waterskin that was half full. He didn't know how much water was available, but surely he could use a little to get his hands clean, anyway. Dirty hands made sicknesses worse. He reopened his eyes and poured a little water on the hem of his tunic, then used the wet cloth to wipe the worst of the blood and filth from his hands. The cleanliness wouldn't last, but it was better than nothing.

Almost as if on cue, Corbin staggered into the hall. Covered in blood but clearly able to stand and walk still. He approached Noah, a worried look on his face as he asked, "Are you a healer??" His large pleading hazel eyes almost looked green set against such vividly red blood (smeared all over his face somehow). He looked like hell, almost as if he just rolled all over a pile of freshly slain.

"Uh huh. Are you hurt?" Apprentice healer, but Noah didn't offer that correction up, because it didn't matter and also because he was competent and saying that might imply otherwise and he didn't want to make himself look inept. He got up. "Sit down, I can help," he said, pointing at the crate. "Where are you hurt? How bad is it? It's pretty bad out there, isn't it ..."

"Yes," his tone was almost whiny as he went over and plopped on the crate. "I'm hurt all over," and he immediately began pointing at small barely visible cuts to his hands and bruises all over his person and finally a cut to his neck... that looked old and scarred. "I'm lucky to be alive!" he exclaimed with surprise.

A frown gathered like a storm on Noah's brows as the list of "injuries" stacked up. "I've been wrapping up cuts down to the bone," he said, exasperated, "and worse, that is nothing." Nevertheless, he wetted a piece of rag to clean up the worst of the scrapes. Infection was still a risk, even with small scratches like this. "What were you fighting, a bunch of chickens tied up inside a burlap sack?"

Corbin wilted at the scolding and nearly melted into a puddle of guilt right there on the crate. His tone now quiet and feeble as he apologized, "sorry... I will try to get better injuries next time." He did not sound the least bit sarcastic, either.

"What," and Noah paused in cleaning the scratches to stare at the other boy. "Why would you - no," he said, and contemplated smacking one of the more visible bruises. But he wasn't quite that mean. "Just, you know, you're not dying, try to keep it that way. The next sack of chickens might be meaner," he added acerbically.

"Okay..." He remained all drooped and wilted. "So don't bother you unless I'm cut to the bone, then?" He stared at his own boots distractedly.

"I didn't say that, just don't tell me you're dying if this is all. Hold still." Noah washed the blood off a scratch across Corbin's cheekbone. "There. I'm, um," his tone changed, gentling from snappish to vaguely apologetic, "it's been a long day. Night. Is it day or night? I don't even know. I'm kind of tired and all of it is getting to me so I'm yelling. Does that feel better?"

Corbin fell silent as he watched Noah continue to do his thing. In no time all of his scratches were cleaned up. Though the rest of him, the blood was beginning to dry and flake off. He looked a lot better than when he first arrived, in any case. "All better," he assured with a small smile. "Are you planning to stay here?"

"Until I can help better somewhere else." Noah leaned against the wall, then slid down it to sit on the floor. He uncapped the waterskin again and drank from it, then held it up in an offer. He had a flask of alcohol still, but he was saving that for medicinal purposes. "Are you? What's going on, do you know?"

"I'm not sure what is going on up ahead but it sounds like they need help," he looked ahead uncertainly and then back to Noah with a smile. He took the flask and a swig of it without thinking and handed it back, "I'm no healer anyway. I need to fight. I'm no good to anyone staying here."

"I just, I need to rest a bit before I go on," Noah said, and corked the flask again, tucking it into one of the pouches on his belt. "I'm better at tending people than fighting. I was learning to be an herbalist. Before ... everything."

"I don;t really remember anything from before," he didn't seem to have any emotions about this fact. "My name is Corbin by the way," He dusted his hands off on himself before offering his left hand to Noah for a shake. "will I be seeing you again?..."
