Basil ran to Esdel and started checking for a pulse. Chim squatted next to the bag and calmly started picking everything up, examining the contents as he placed them back in the bag.
Esdel leaned against the door and began to pick at the skin that sat around his nails. He began to sway side to side, his eyes began to roll towards the back of his head. In a swift motion Esdel fell to the ground hard, causing the contents of his bag to fall out.
She looked up at Oddir, nodded her head and said," yes. thank you very much," She looked around at thee people around her and stated," Where are my manners I am Titania."
After ensuring the door was sturdy enough, Oddir turned to the two and asked "I've forgotten to ask for your names, I'm Oddir Magnusson." He approaches Titania and asked "The wound looks nasty, may I tend it?"
"Luckily we missed. Knowing us, one of us would've lost a limb. What kind of beast it was it," Chim responded chuckling.
"Hey watch it kid, just because you're clumsy doesn't mean I don't know how to fight," Basil said to her sarcastic friend.
Esdel dust off his pants and adjusted his bag before speaking, "Mhm..." The young man's eyes did not leave the floor. He continued to stare at the ground, bringing a hand to his mouth and chewing on his nail beds.
"Oddir saved us, he fought the beast off with fire. I couldn't do much because my leg had been slashed."
"Eh, not much. Only that we wound up in the Mistborn forest and was attacked by a werewolf. Good ol' Tita got her leg slashed and the brave Duke Esdel over here both shook himself and the bloody beast and I just threw some fire on it and now here we are" Oddir said, sighing as he looked at the door, checking the wood for splinters and cracks.
"What did I miss," Basil says to the group huddled around the door. She and Chim accidentally went back to sleep and missed the mission.
