[QUOTE="Boddynock, post: 2110574, member: 21506"] Alton thanks Mya for the tea, takes a couple of sips from the cup, and then puts it down and goes over to Kiylea's side. Looking into her pale face, he notes that her breathing, though shallow, is steady. He looks up to find Mya standing next to him. He manages a smile and nods. He starts to say that she will be fine when Alton arrives, but discovers to his horror that he is so close to tears that he cannot speak. So he nods again, and moves back to sit down and drink his tea. A few minutes later he is up again and back at Kiylea's side. There's nothing further he can do - just watch and wait. When Alton Senior arrives, he stands and takes a step towards him. "Father ... it was the boar. I couldn't reach her until it was nearly too late. I'm sorry." Then he shakes his head, gathers himself and says, "But she is breathing steadily and the bloodflow has been stanched. She has been badly gored but there are no broken bones. Please call upon the Goddess to heal her." [/QUOTE]
