[Firen]

It's hard to tell exactly what the looming stranger is trying to communicate when each movement brings a disorienting wave of pain, but through the ringing in his ears, Firen gets the point.

Blink twice if you don’t want to die immediately.

He blinks, hard, and flakes of frozen blood fall from his lashes. He didn't want to die, and he had no way to stop that from happening on his own. Trust was the name of the game he was going to have to play, his body reminds him with a violent shudder. He wouldn’t remember most of this day when he tried to look back to it, but at the moment, the memory of the attack is playing on repeat in his mind. In fantastic detail, he observes the creature, the girl, the blinding pain. 

The girl.

Everything had happened so fast, he had barley hit the ground before his world went dark. But her face comes to mind again, blue and black and brindled like him, and he wonders if she suffered a similar fate.

Or worse.

"The girl," he gasps, trying not to choke as he braces for whatever this stranger is going to do, "is she ok..."


@[Leilan] sorry this is so short but he's pretty worthless atm!
