Unseen Wounds

The couple lay side by side, unmoving, unflinching for unspeakable durations. Some thought this was their deathbed, their coffins already crafted, and the mourners ready to shed tears. Yet, the people who loved them the most refused to give up despite their unconventional methods. 

Finally, the first to wake up was Killorn. Scarred and sliced by battle, but rippling with strength, Killorn woke up to a comatose wife. People expected his fury and wrath at her state, but were instead met with composure and solitude. He seldom spoke much of her, and instead, focused his energy on rebuilding his pack. He visited the makeshift hospitals, personally saw to the restoration of the damaged buildings, and was present during all of the crucial meetings.
