HOUR: 12:50
Daitza and you spend the next few minutes coming up with a plan for today. The optimism from a while ago has turned into concern regarding the short deadline you must meet… but you know there’s no point on lamenting over it. It’s best to set your mind on what you CAN do with the time you were given.
And so, with your eyes closed and your head resting on Datz’ lap, together you discuss everything you can do in the fortress. “Hmm… let’s see. We can go to that so-called church and ask the priests to teach us a thing or two about using Anu’s powers, OR we can go to the barracks, get into a fighting match and show the humielets how strong Bloodseekers are...”
“I like the sound of that!” Daitza exclaims with a naughty smile. “Maybe the humielets will stop messing with us if we assert dominance over them. They better do, for their own sake!”
You take a look at the scratches all over her face and arms, which remind you of your own injuries – and the mild pain that comes with them. “Oh man, we need to do something about our wounds. Training like this won’t do us any good…”
“Hm. Yeah...” Daitza looks down with a frown, clearly thinking about something. A few seconds after, her eyes swiftly open up and meet yours. “Hey, what if that alchemist dude Arthur mentioned has a concoction that lets us heal faster? From the way he described him, he seems to be an herbalist like Rakuta…”
You nod. “Doesn’t hurt to ask. Let’s just hope the dwarf is willing to share his stuff. If not, then maybe the ones working at that ‘hospital’ place can help us out.”
“Don’t go to the hospital” Hawkodesh suddenly says. “Your recovery would be slow. Very impractical given the urgency of the situation. The priests can teach you a new healing power, one that is different from Body Restoration, but effective nonetheless.”
“Wha- really?! Well, why didn’t you say that sooner!”
“Huh? Say what?” Datz looks confused.
“Not you, silly…” You smile. “My angel buddy says the priests of Anu can teach me a power to heal ourselves. Heading to the church seems like a great idea now, don’t ya think?”
“Umm, sure! Whatever works best.” Your pal shrugs contently. “Frankly, I’d love to see you cast a cool spell like the shaman does.”
