[h1]Allanon:[/h1] On their way to the temple, many people noticed Allanon carrying Valia, who was covered in bruised. The sight, stunned a lot of the people he passed by, some letting a curse slip from their mouths. Someone ran off to alert the guards. By the time they reached the temple, there was a small crowd following them, but not too closely. Rumors already spreading about what may have happened, and if the strange man carrying her was somehow involved. "It seems we might have caused a bit of a stir," Valia said to Allanon as they went up the temple steps. The doors were open already, making it easy to get inside, and luckily the people didnt rush into the temple with them, though a few guards who caught up did. A clergymen was the first to notice their arrival, getting up from his small chair in the entryway. He wore simple yet comfortable white robes with a hood loosely resting on his balding head. He was a tall yet thin Varuk man, with dark skin from his years in the desert. "M-Madame Valia!" He shouted after her as he rushed to them. He helped Allanon get her to a bed in their medical facility on the other side of the temple. "Just rest dear, you will be safe here." He looked her over before he turned to a priestess in the room as well. "Go inform the Red Saints we have a patient." The girl bowed and rushed off. The clergyman turned to Allanon, "thank you for bringing her here stranger, but I must inquire as to what happened." Shortly, three large Varuk guards blundered to the doorway. "Madame Valia, are you alright!?" One shouted while the other to gave a cold glare to Alanon, already suspecting him. The clergyman lifted a hand to them to stop them. "She would be doing much better if you baffoons would give her peace and quiet, stand at the door if you please!" He said a bit irked. the guards straightened up and went outside the room, standing guard at the door, murmuring amongst themselves and listening in on the conversation. Valia spoke up from the bed she laid on, "Its all right, I am fine. This man found me shortly after I had been attacked. I was able to fend them off, and he helped me get here." "Please rest Ms. Valia, I will ask him, just concentrate on your rest." He thought for a moment as he turned bask to Allanon, "I can't think of anyone bearing her ill will, did you see anything of these attackers?" Just then two people wearing white and red, bearing the symbol of a red lotus came into the room. Unlike most of the mercenaries, or rather volunteers, of the Lonnette family, they werent human. It was actually common for non human mercenaries from Portea to work abroad, mostly so they could skip out on the persecution they could face from the citizens. Merchant families like the Lonnette and Dalkain still tried to help where they could, drawing critisism from many people, though not many could say too much as they were some of the few wealthy families that actually helped their communities rather than attempt to tax them to death. The man was a drake beastman, and the girl that entered after him was a half feline beastman. The drake looked at Allanon with a sidelong glance and chuckled a bit under his breath. "So, the infamous Allanon is here to help people in need as well. Makes a person wonder whats truth or fiction these days."

One a notebook, and the other a spellbook. "Don't worry, I'll have you fixed up in no time," the girl said quietly in a soothing tone. Though, when she moved part o Valia's skirt out of the way her ears gave away her concern when they snapped back in surprise. Her leg was brutally beaten, it would be hard to repair the damage done to a level of working as well as it had once done. She looked up to the others. "If you don't mind, some privacy please. This shouldn't take long, but I'll have to remove her clothes for some of the wounds." The clergyman nodded and ushered everyone from the room, the drake man started to leave when the healer quickly grabbed him by the pauldron. "Not you, I still need you!" she said as she dragged him back in. Valia looked to Allanon as he was ushered out. "Don't worry, I'll still help you, but it may be better if I could at least walk," she said with a smile to reassure him. The cat girl looked between the two and then settled on Allanon, giving him a thumbs up "Nothing to worry, I used to be an emergency medic in Portea, I'll have her walkin' in a jif!" Unlike her drake friend, she had no idea who he was, she never bothered paying attention to that sort of thing, too busy trying to save lives than hunt them down.
