Eva's eyes were fixed on Xylon's face, her heart sinking as she took in the sight of her brother lying on the bed, unconscious and in pain. It was the first time she had seen him in such a state, and she was not prepared for the shock of it.
She stood frozen for what felt like an eternity, tears welling up in her eyes. Akuna, seeing the distress on Eva's face, stepped up beside her and gently pushed her towards the bed.
Xylon's face was twisted in a grimace, even in his sleep, and the sight of it was almost too much for Eva to bear.
"What happened to him?" she asked in a trembling voice, her hands shaking with fear and uncertainty.
Akuna hesitated before answering, her voice barely above a whisper. "He came three days ago from the abyss of demon souls like this. He was not conscious and couldn't figure out what happened there. I'm not a healer, Eva, and I've tried to ease his pain but I couldn't. A healer is all that I need right now."
