Adam continued to keep his eyes on the door, as if doing so would make Lillianna go through them faster, safe and sound. One thing released him from his gaze though; the loud declaration of a mage casting.

The man practically jumped out of his seat in a panic, looking around in alarm to see just what the heck was going on. But seeing the staff remain calm had something kind of close to that effect on him also; they [i]had[/i] healed Zell without any shenanigans, so he could trust them to do the same for Lillianna. [i]For now.[/i] The remaining doubts in his head would go away as well upon seeing the woman arrive along with a shorter one who explained what was happening with an accent. And what a relief it was to see the white-haired girl safe and sound. The contrast between the lady who he had carried in his arms not that long ago and the one in front of him now was apparent and obvious. Now the Druid was visibly calm with an actual smile on his face as he listened. Upon the nurse's departure, the mage spoke a single sentence with a tear going down her cheek.

Well, she couldn't be blamed for that. The battle was a tough time for everyone, and if Zell's speech was any indication, there was a very slight chance that the red-eyed man had overreacted with his own little declaration to everyone after the fight. And he didn't even cast a lightning bolt on himself like she did. That seemed like a good place to start.


Rising again from where he was sitting at a normal speed to talk to Lillianna at eye level, Adam spoke sincerely to her. "You were so brave back there, taking the ninja on like that. And I'm so happy to see you're okay. Do you want some water again? …Or maybe a hug? Whatever you want." Since he didn't know her very well, he offered the second thing somewhat more hesitantly for fear of it being taken the wrong way, but the slight embarrassment was nothing compared to his desire to want her to be completely okay. The Druid knew she had been through a lot and did not want to get that cube delivered until he was sure she was alright.
