I carry the wounded human into Emilyâs house. I know she will be safe there, though I donât entirely know why. The villagers respect Emily, but they also seem to respect this house too.
âYou shouldnât have done that,â Emily says. âIt was the right thing to do, but⦠here, bring her into the spare room. Good. Rest her gently. Perfect.â
I stand back and watch as Emily rolls up her sleeves and gets to work. She may not be a doctor, but she acts with the cool, determined detachment of one. Her first act is to sedate her patient with something dabbed onto a cloth and placed beneath the womanâs nose. She is barely sensate as it is, but the fumes of whatever concoction Emily has used puts her right out.
Emily then proceeds to take a long pair of pliers, heats them well over a hot flame and reaches into the wound, extracting the bullet.
âMissed the major vessels,â she says. âThis girl owes her life to what awful shots they are.â
The girl has pale brown skin dashed with freckles, and thick dark curling hair. She looks to be around the same age as Emily, perhaps a little younger. She does not look like a threat, though she does perhaps look a little sick.
âShe's fevered,â Emily says with a glance up at me before she turns her attention to dealing with the wound. âBar the doors. I will have no contact with anybody until her fever breaks and we see if I contract it.â
It is a crushing realization to understand that I have put my human pet at risk of illness in my reflexive rush to save another.
âI am sorry,â I say, though those two words do very little to touch the remorse I am suddenly absolutely swamped with.
âDonât be. You did the right thing. I think. It doesnât matter anyway, itâs too late.â
I stand back and watch as Emily saves a complete stranger, risking her life to do so without a murmur of complaint. If not for me, this would never have happened. Then again, if not for me, Emily and her entire village would be the captives of Wrathelder.
âThatâs all I can do,â she says after a time. âItâs up to her now.â
âYouâve done well, pet. Now, it is time I washed and fed you.â
âExcuse me?â
âI want to look after you.â
Her gaze softens.
âThat sounds nice,â she murmurs.
