Change
Khan's mental barrier shook when Luke's words reached his ears. Cora's kiss vanished from his thoughts as he jumped off his simple bed and ran to his friend.
Luke quickly led Khan toward one of the large medical tents built near the center of the camp. The soldiers didn't usually let anyone inside, but they moved away when they saw the boy with connections to the noble families and the famous kid who had created the signal for the army.
The two boys walked among the various beds containing injured recruits. Only those in severe conditions or deep need of rest could occupy those spots, so the scene was quite grim.
Khan ignored the severed limbs, bleeding bandages, and infected injuries that reached his eyes while searching for his friend. A familiar figure eventually appeared in his vision, and his mental barrier couldn't help but shake again.
