Pavel lowers his rifle and uncloaks. He removes the metamaterial scarf from his face. He is elated to have found her alive.
"Kora!"
English
-
[i]she falls asleep soon after he bandaged the wound and drank the water, tired after not getting sleep the past few days[/i]
-
He watched her sleep for awhile, he remembered when their places had been reversed. He left her side very little, waiting for her to wake.
-
[i]later in the trip, she wakes up suddenly, screaming slightly and thrashing out with an arm[/i]
-
He jolts awake having fallen asleep himself. He did his best to calm her. "kora it's alright it was just a dream, you're okay. It's gonna be alright."
-
[i]she looks at him, unsure of what to say[/i]
-
"It's alright, it was just a nightmare. I had them too, I still do. They happen from time to time, it's the summoner."
-
[i]she nods, and sits upright[/i]
-
"Easy there, you were shot remember? What do you need I'll get it for you."
-
"Just to sit, probably won't be able to sleep for a while..."
-
Pavel looks at her skeptically, but nods in understanding. "It was the same for me, you remember that night you passed out drunk in my bed?"
-
"Yes?"
-
"That was the first time I'd gotten decent sleep, the alcohol helped, but since then the nightmares only come once and awhile."
-
"Doesn't sound fun, and at least I'll know what to expect..." [i]she sighs[/i]
-
"Listen, I know right now you won't want to talk about... What happened if you eventually ever do I'm here for you."
-
"You can already see one of the many things he did" [i]she gestures to her face, before looking away [/i]
-
He took off his shirt, revealing a patchwork of tattoos and of scars. Large jagged lines run across his chest and back. "I know, and he will pay for it, for everything he's done."
-
[i]she looks at him, before looking away again[/i] "He also, constantly berated my mind, trying to gain entry to it He also used plaque flies..." [i]she shudders slightly[/i]
-
"He did that and he forced me to watch as he created two shades. One was of me and the other of a person who constantly changed. It was always a person I cared about, friends and family. The closer I was to them the worse their deaths by the shade that looked like me." He walks over and sits next to her, putting his hand on her shoulder.
-
[i]she continues looking away[/i] "That's a nightmare... I don't know about you, but the worst came from the soldiers and guards..."

-
[i]she stays quiet for a bit[/i]
-
He gets up and goes to his rucksack and digs around he produces two packages of rations. "Here you need to eat, you've lost a lot of blood. " He walks back and hands her one.
-
[i]she takes it and starts eating it, keeping quiet[/i]
-
He breaks open the package and starts to eat. "Not exactly a five star diner, but I could be worse, it's better than what I grew up eating."
-
[i]she nods, and continues eating[/i]
