Rough Edges

[Gharen]

Gharen sits cross legged with his elbow resting upon his thigh and his chin in the palm of his hand there's a look of concern on his face, though the concern seems to be fading now that she's woken.

 

"Did ye have a nice nap Miss Primrose? Ye passed out." as silly as the sight was he didn't laugh, she didn't need to be embarrassed about this.

 

"Yer in th' refugee camp, an we were workin' on yer healin', I'm guessin' at some point ye fergot tha' breathin' tis important, cause ye've only been out o' it nae more'n a few moments. How do ye feel?"

[111]

Evangeline blushes slightly, and moves to shakily get to her feet, "I er... got a little carried away." Taking a deep breath she offers a wry smile, "I tend to do that, don't I?"

 

"I feel fine, just a little dizzy still." She steps forward, "How is your arm? Hopefully it will not leave a scar. Twelve above...." She sighs, "I'm not a very good pupil, am I?"

[Gharen]

He gives her a concerned look, "Ye did quite well lass, little more'n a scratch left tha' won' even leave a scar. Tha's more'n most can claim, especially given yer claim o' light breezes an' rollin' pebbles. Ye make it soun' like ye failed somehow."

[111]

She laughs, "Shall I go over our last few sessions? The first ended with the wounding of your knee. Soon after during another we were almost killed during another, and now I almost suffocated in an open field."

 

Evangeline gives him a saucy wink, "Though the time we were almost killed wasn't so bad, now I can say I have spent a night with the great Master Wolfsong."

 

She grins, "I hesitate to guess what might happen next."

 

"I did fail though, in a way." She closes her eyes for a moment, "I can't bring back that feeling, something about the stress gave me clarity. I fear It will be long practice before I can do such things at will."

 

"Shall we leave one another for the day then?" She leans down and offers a hand to the highlander, "Or do you wish to risk yet another disaster."

[Gharen]

Gharen takes her hand and stands up, "I would say tha' yer a fine student, ye simply approach problems differently than most, if'n anything ye've taught me a thing or two about how I approach teachin' someone tha' views th' world th' way ye do."

 

He bends over and pats off the dust and dirt upon his armor, "I still say tha' don' quite count really unless somethin' happened I was nae conscious fer. An don' worry about th' healin' anythin' worth doin' is nae goin' te be easy, an' I imagine given enough time an' practice you'll be quite adept at it."

 

He lets a breath out as he gives her a look. "I hope ye've been makin' nice with Miss Crofte now. Because she's th' next challenge we face in yer becomin' a paladin."
