Outwardly, she was fine by it, but inwardly it was a small hit to her pride. She had felt she had done well so far in her training and few conflicts she had been involved with as a temple guard. When someone as green as Bidzil was offered as chance to spar but then refused to her, it made her feel like she was being seen as green. True, she guessed she probably was in the grand scheme of things, but even she guessed that she had seen more combat than this Bidzil character. Bidzil sighed and looked out of the cave to the rolling desert sands, [color=F4A460]"I knew what I would be getting into... If I had any mind to just sit around on my ass waiting for what happens next I would have just stayed in Salna after Trantis was wiped out."[/color] Bidzil turned to the others, [color=F4A460]"I wasn't able to help the ones closest to me before, but I have the chance to stop anything like that from happening again and I'm going to take it, and find the ones responsible. If I can't do this here, what's the point of continuing on? I'll be ready when the time comes... those deserving of death should have it served promptly, and I will gladly be the one to deliver it to them. You can take that as my oath."[/color] Bidzil was quiet for a moment after saying this as his usually jovial demeanor had darkened, reflecting on the events of the past few weeks. [color=D2691E]"Well, if your words are true you definitely have the soul of a warrior, and you don't seem to be bad with a blade either, but words are tempered on the battlefield, not the practice field,"[/color] Hilde smirked with a little laugh, lightening the mood a bit, making Bidzil laugh chuckle a bit himself. [color=F4A460]"Y-yeah, sorry to get so serious on all y'all for a moment there. I'll do my best not to slow any of you down,"[/color] he said a bit sheepishly as his normal personality started to shine back through. [color=F4A460]"I'm sure we'll kick their asses before they knew what hit'em."[/color] "Aye, that's the plan, bright an early before they have time for their mornin' scratch," Dorran said as he walked up to join the group, chuckling at his own joke. "An we won't be leavin' any of them left standin'. That was a great spar, even better that I earned a few coin off it," he smiled as he jerked a thumb to the makeshift campsite they made. "Camp is set to go. Night will be here soon, and we will be headed out a few hours before first light. I'd settle in when you can, check your gear, and get some good sleep. [color=F4A460]"You bet on if I would lose?"[/color] Bidzil asked with a wry smile. "Hardly, boy. I can sense a strong warrior's presence in you, but we all knew you were going to lose, so we bet on how long you would last. I put the longest time and you pulled through, good job," Dorran said as he bellowed with laughter as he clapped Bidzil on the back nearly knocking him forward even though he was seated. Dorran held up a small sack as he walked away that jingled with coin. [color=F4A460]"Hah, gee, that makes it sound so much better,"[/color] Bidzil replied rubbing his back.

"If... if it helps saves another's life, it is always worth it... I'll be fine in time. They have already lost ten people, and though that may seem small to some, that is families that are permanently damaged. And in such a small community, it will have a great impact. In Portea, one can disappear and none be the wiser, but even these ten live will be felt for years to come. I was so sure that nobody would show up I did what I felt I needed to do as a healer..." she said solemnly as she looked up from her hands. Her brows furrowed as she looked Maeve squarely in the eye, [i]having to look up to do so[/i]. "Alright then, I will try to withhold from using magic,though that is [i]not[/i] a guarantee, but that means I will depend on you to do as I say and cast when I need you too, alright?" she demanded of Maeve. She turned and already began arranging the tools she needed to work on Allard, putting on a new pair of gloves before starting her work. "Lives are precious and I will [i]nyot[/i] rest until I am sure everyone is treated to our full capability. Anything short would be unforgivable," as she was saying this she had cut open Allard's leather straps to his top armor piece, letting it fall to the side so it was out of the way. from the looks of things, scars seemed to be the natural texture of this man's skin, some even as large as the one she was working on now. "Cast major healing here, we need this wound gone now. Most of these we can let slide with regular medical care," she said as she started treating other wounds manually. Allard grunted, "Oi, ya still got a room at the inn tonight, tryin' ta say the bed aren't up ta snuff? Just some noisy neighbors is all" he chuckled, "you two can stay as long as ya need, you have my word." e would wince here and there as Neev was bus at work on him, though the relief he had when Maeve would heal him would make him feel like he could breath again, it was like he was going off one lung or something. As for Sahale, he only shook his head when Maeve spoke of nothing happening to Tundral's people. [color=9932CC]"Not outright, no, but a handful have gone missing from Midrill in times past, I suppose that is where he gets some of his healers from. Orzhov, hmm? Quite high on the totem pole I see, and the pleasure is all mine, I assure you. No every day I meet such a prestigious member of Isoli nobility, rather that not many of them leave Tundral."[/color] he smiled as he recalled their reclusivness. [color=9932CC]"Anyway, I really must be going. There is a scouting party to catch up with and If I want to see them before they go marching into battle, I should probably leave now. Take care, I feel we will be seeing each other again soon."[/color] he smirked as he made another bow and started out the door. By the time anybody may have went out to check on him, he was already gone.
