Turning to face Teleri, Ayden shook his head gently at her offer to assist him, as time was a luxury that they did not possess at the moment.
~I know she wishes to help, but for the moment I do not have the time to instruct her on the more mundane aspects of treating bruises and swollen joints.~
As Broddy began examining the body of the basilisk further, Ayden felt an irrational desire to snap at the gnome and tell him to stop toying with the creature and burn it until its bones turned to ash. However, just as quickly as the impulse came, it vanished as Ayden's heard the battered priest ask for assistance with his armor and knew that he was in no shape at the moment to do so.
Pulling the wand once more out of the bag, Ayden could feel that its uses were lessening, but knew that alerting his companions of that fact would only make them worry. Touching it to Sarlis' arm, Ayden willed the charge to mend his wounds and as the bruises and cuts faded before their eyes, he knew that for the time being, he was physically whole once more.
"You may feel extreme thirst and hunger Master Sarlis, as the wand heals the body of its wounds, but not of its basic needs. What rations we have, we will gladly share while we are here."
Leaving Calenthang and Sarlis to work on getting the Morninglord's armor on once more, Ayden picked up the axe of the slain keeper and placed it in the bag.
~He will need coin for provisions, and perhaps we can trade this for him with the merchants above...~
Turning back to face his companions, Ayden waited until Calenthang was finished with helping Sarlis before speaking to them.
"After the fight with the bat creatures, I felt Finder's call urging me to leave this place, and while I did not want to do so, I could not resist his call. However, Finder did not mean for me to abandon you, but for me to meet with the one who could give us the answers we sought concerning this dark place. I have spoken with her, and it was she who told me of the basilisk and that I would find you here. She awaits our arrival, as the longer we tarry, the greater the danger she, as well as ourselves are in."
