Reveal the truth, as best as you can explain it, or as best as they can accept it.Although you appreciate the attention and praise from all the men, you have to keep their victorious enthusiasm in check to be able to focus on the more important matter at hand; seeing them all well. There isn't a person here who isn't injured, and several of the men are dying. Without enemies to occupy your attention, now you can perform your more worthy duty instead of combat.
<span class="mu-s">"No miss, take care of yourself first!"</span>
<span class="mu-s">"It's not so bad, really miss. I can take it!"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"Shush! Enough of this, let me work."</span>
By their devotion the lot of them demand and plead that you help yourself before any of them, as you're still covered in grievous wounds and blood, and even have a few arrows stuck in you here and there. They can't understand that none of these things are any threat to you... other than the injuries that one mighty northman dealt to you, and you can't just heal that away.
No, you'll heal each and every last one of them to full, before you take care of yourself. An act which only further increases their awe and devotion towards you. Invariably though with the fighting over, they have the chance now to observe you and your condition and start to wonder and murmur among themselves about... well, exactly what you are. To further distract and keep them occupied then, you decide to be truthful with them, trying to explain while you work at healing one man to the next.
After all, you might lessen their trust in you if you try to explain away your glowing eyes and the feats you accomplished earlier. Plus it can serve as test to see how these mortals, of these times and this culture, take the news.
<span class="mu-s">"A god? Come off it, miss!"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"First a prophet, now Sedjet herself?"</span>
Even Tyne has difficulty understanding or accepting it.
<span class="mu-r">"I didn't think it important to be fully open with the truth earlier, but now it is important... is it really so hard to believe? Doesn't your God do the same? It can't be the first you've seen something like this, what about the leader of the northmen earlier?"</span>
Ironically enough it sounds like their God did send a descendant to the world, something like that they try to relate to you. But an actual god, kneeling among them and tending to their wounds? The men gathered about in skepticism, scratching their heads and conversing among each other. Their devotion to you isn't any less... but they wonder if maybe you hit your head in the battle, or that they are misunderstanding what you are telling them. Being that you are a foreign woman so maybe there's issues with the language, or your accent.
