Catching Up

"Alex? What happened to her, Victor?" Devotion asked, kneeling down next to where Alex was lying. She was covered in bruises and singe marks.

"We got ambushed. She was behind me, and they both unleashed an onslaught of attacks. Knocked her out instantly. She's still breathing, though. That's at least something." Victor explained.

"Damn shame it's her that got hit. I'm horrible with restoration magic."

"I doubt I'm much better. At least we still had that healing potion, it should at least stabilize her for some time." Victor lamented.

Ysmir stood triumphantly in front of Alex. He hadn't let anyone get near her during that time, just as Devotion asked of it.

"You have to fill me in. What happened since we got separated?" Devotion asked. He hadn't seen Victor since they entered the Secret Realm, and had been quite worried.
