Luckily Shieldwing offered to carry Alpin when the latter could no longer swim, so Fellwing didn't need to embarrass herself further by trying to volunteer. She wasn't the strongest of swimmers herself, being far more accustomed to flying, but she didn't utter a word of complaint. Or a word in general, really. She was too busy trying to recall the details of her visions which, by now, had already started to fade. Echo was not well; one could tell as much with a glance. Wordlessly and worried, she glanced over at Stargaze, letting the two exchange greetings and pleasantries before she stepped up, back straight and wings folded neatly at her sides. [color=#595555]"Echo," [/color]she greeted, bowing her head. [color=#595555]"We've seen what the Darkness has done here." [/color] It was only now she remembered the stranger she heard Alpin mention way back when, and instantly she regretted not asking him about it earlier. Perhaps it wasn't too late. [color=#595555]"I've many questions. The stranger in the hollow-- are they the cause?"[/color] Her gaze flickered between Echo and Alpin, [color=#595555]"What do you know of them? And--"[/color] Fellwing glanced deeper into the cave. She knew she ought to be careful who she let know of her visions, so what happened with Alpin didn't repeat. But Echo seemed trustworthy enough, and they were in a hurry besides. [color=#595555]"As I... as I understand it, you've a guest over. As the moons willed, I saw them, and you, and the state of their injuries. May we help in any way? What happened to them?"[/color][/color]
