He knew that it would make sense for him to heal the drow first so that she may help him in tending to the others but he could not bring himself to do it. Her presence had caused the quarrel outside the Ashen Tower that had led to the death of Micor and Ilar, the elven brothers who had gone with them to the ruins. How many more would die because a drow, and one that seemingly served Lolth, the Demoness Queen of the Spiders, travelled with them. Though he derided himself for the thought, Erlmoor momentarily hoped that the choice would not be presented to him.“She lives,” Thira said, removing the possibility.Erlmoor made his way over to the priestess and hastily prayed to Lathander while grasping the drow’s shoulder hard. Kel’s eyes flicked open and met the dragonborn’s. She looked to his hand on her shoulder, his firm grip and the claws on his hand hurting her.“Are you trying to heal me, paladin?” she said softly. “Or make sure I’m dead?” Erlmoor jerked his hand away and rose to his feet, turning away from the drow.“They need your help,” he said, gesturing around the chamber at his fallen friends. He knelt beside Dulvarna and began to pray again while Kel rose to her feet and began her own prayer where she stood. Pale blue light washed over Lavren and the elf slowly sat up while Kel prayed again and the same light touched Enlishia and engulfed her. Kel looked over at Lavren as the elf began to gather up the gold into a sack he carried at his belt and then she turned back to Enlishia. The ranger’s eyes remained closed. Kel let out a strangled gasp and Erlmoor looked up from where he knelt.“What’s wrong?” he asked urgently but Kel could only point.Erlmoor looked over at the ranger, as did Dulvarna who had been woken by the paladin’s healing prayer. Enlishia was propped in a sitting position against the wall he body scarred by acid and blood staining the stone behind her head. Erlmoor rose and started towards the ranger but stopped halfway towards the woman and sank to his knees. A bestial roar of rage filled the chamber as the others looked on helplessly. Slowly the truth dawned for them all and even Lavren, preoccupied with his treasure gathering on the island, stopped and turned to regard the fallen ranger and her dragonborn friend. Enlishia was dead. Erlmoor could not save her.</blockquote>
