Alerting him of the fruits of his labor and the repercussion of his actions and decisions. [color=chocolate]'Hp drain? Damn...'[/color] Ed could already feel his body forcing itself to move at a slower pace due to the exhaustion. His sight went blurry and his breaths were quick and shallow as he finally made his way back to Asteria. It seemed that one of the pixies had helped stabilize her somewhat when Ed left to gather water. He looks to the impromptu water sack and sees that barely a cup of water was left in the makeshift water skin. He looks to the pixie and wheezes out a response. [color=chocolate]"T-th-thanks for...helping her."[/color] Ed spoke to the pixie with barely above a whisper. He then moves closer to Asteria and reassures her with a gentle pat on her side before wheezing out words to speak to her. [color=chocolate]"So-sorry if...it feels...strange."[/color] Ed then pours the water collected from the pool over her acid burn. Hoping to God, or whoever was listening, that it would help his ally. He knew the pain of the acid was a terrible pain, his hind leg was a testament to that fact. If put into words it would be akin to a ravenous fire that cannot be put out so easily. He worries for her as her burns were more severe than his. If the water would be insufficient to help aid her, he would march back to the pool and get some more water. If the water skin tore, he would cut open another lizard and make another. He refused to let her suffer if he could do something about it. He heard Jason call out to the others. If Jason were to evolve, Ed would do his damnedest to protect him if he was able...though sadly, this was not the case. Ed could easily surmise that his body was soon to collapse out of exhaustion. He could barely walk to and fro the pool and the camp, let alone fight something. Though given the chance he would.
