After-fight aftercare

It didn't take long for everyone to regroup: the Leshies made sure of that. The moment Euryale retreated, dozens of little forest sprites rushed up to dance and play around everyone who had fought, whether it was what they wanted or not. Admittedly, by this point despite how she found the little plant creatures charming, even Dahlia couldn't help but want them to give her space as she carried Valentina's unconscious body through the thigh high water of the basin. Their only saving grace was that the leshies also highlighted the locations of everyone else.

Supporting her love with vines and then pulling the two of them forward, Dahlia was quick to reunite with the others but, frankly, out of everyone she and Valentina were by far the best off. Even upon arriving and not knowing what exactly had happened for the others, that much was made clear almost immediately.
