Regaining Consciousness

Elijah could feel a hand touching his forehead while he was asleep. The touch reminded him of someone, so he immediately forced himself to wake up and restrain the hand of whoever had previously touched his forehead.

"Amisha!"

Elijah shouted that name, apparently not fully awake yet, as he had forgotten that Amisha and Hafuza had died at the hands of the werebeasts. His gaze was a little blurry as he had closed his eyes for too long. It took a while for Elijah to gather all his consciousness and see that the one who saved him was not the woman and or teenager he knew before.

Instead, what he saw was an angry dwarf who grew disgusted when he heard someone call him by a woman's name.

"Do I look like a woman to you?!"
