When eventually the unnatural storm stats to fade, it's into the early hours of the morning. Perhaps your flock might have feared the worse, but when you finally stomp out of the sea and back onto shore... you're not alone.
<span class="mu-b">"-hey! Careful with him, tell them to be careful with him!"</span>
<span class="mu-s">"-a-amazing! Oh great Tanaloa, what did you do to him?! When others hear of this..."</span>
Once on the sandy rocks again, you gently set the man down and help him to stand. He's still in a bad way, tremendously weak and feeling quite awful... but he is healed, standing even thanks to you when before he was at the brink of death. Joyously the few people that remain, some of them his family naturally, swarm the both of you. Trying your best to keep them away, you enlist Cailinn's help to maintain space and ease for your recovered patient. After all, you did what you did but you're not sure if the results will keep, you can only have done your best and hope things turn out well.
Even still, after the humans have a chance to calm down more and can welcome the man back in a measured and careful way, the focus then of course is on you. Many of the humans fall before you in utter devotion and worship, for surely this was a miracle? Your fighting the battles for them was one thing, but not beyond the realm of a great heroic warrior. This though, what has happened this night, is beyond the realm of reality or possibility. The truest sign of divinity they have seen yet, for which now their faith is cast in an entirely different light...
...though after all that, you're quite exhausted. Enough to just collapse and fall asleep on the beach here if you were inclined. Already tired from earlier, this divine feat now took a lot out of you! It was a difficult and messy affair... what the humans don't realize is all the ghastly trial and error you had to go through with the dying man to get the process right. As it happened underwater they didn't see it all happen, otherwise you doubt they'd be rejoicing so much. And sure, though you may have eventually figured out the process so that you can repeat it in the future... all you can say is, that man went through hell to help you with this, and deserves some kind of blessing or reward.
Later though, for now you sorely need that rest, before you just up and pass out.
>Naturally the best place for you to sleep, is in the sea! You'll recover better too.
>After this divine feat, you feel it would be better that the humans see you, and reaffirm their faith. Probably a worse rest, but return to the village.
>Tanaloa sleepy! Here on the beach is fine!
