Chapter 15
Bloodwraith slowly became aware of the darkness. He thought his eyes were closed, but he was too weary to open them or even summon a box to determine his current condition. His entire body ached, though it felt as though he had received magical healing. Then his physical condition was probably fine, he was just still recovering from the life draining spells.
Gradually he realized that he was lying in a soft bed. It was so comfortable that he could have just stayed there, but then he remembered all the horrible memories from the battle. That made rest impossible, so he forced his eyes open.
He lay in a small room that wasn't their inn. Meara sat on the side of the bed and noticed the instant he opened his eyes. She met his gaze and her face transformed from sadness to relief.
"Mea..." His voice rasped and failed. Meara put a finger to his lips.
"You still have a lot of recovery to do." She flicked her wrist and a potion appeared in her hand. He was too tired to take it, so he just stared at it.
[Failed Potion
An improperly brewed potion.
Unassigned Stamina: G
Combat Skills: 7 silvers]
She held the glass to his lips and helped him drink. Though the potion would no doubt have had a negative effect on most, for him he began to feel better the moment he tasted it. As he finished drinking, Meara spoke softly.
"I'm so sorry... I'm supposed to be your ally, yet there was almost nothing I could do..."
"No." Bloodwraith struggled to sit up and meet her gaze directly. "No, I'm the one who needs to apologize. I couldn't fully commit to defeating him because I wanted my old body. If I had been more decisive..."
"We can all forgive you for that, this time." Meara touched his forehead gently and pushed him back against his pillow. "But if Raigar has weapons of such power, we can't afford to be uncertain again. The next time we face him, you'd better know exactly what you want."
He nodded, but the truth was that he was still uncertain. Life had seemed clear enough before, when his goal was to regain his necromancy in his adventurer's body and establish a new sort of life with Meara and Danniah. But the idea of regaining his old body and power... it was a temptation he hadn't known existed before and he found himself in turmoil.
But regardless of that, he still had other concerns. "Is Danniah okay?"
"She's fine. In fact, she'll be overjoyed to see you." Meara smiled and rose from the bed, heading through the small door.
Where exactly were they, anyway? It didn't look like an inn room, more like a small bedroom of a well-off family's house. He found himself wondering what the city of Manascas had decided to do and how the rest of the aftermath had gone, but those thoughts were interrupted when Danniah rushed into the room.
"Bloodwraith!" She dove into the bed and threw her arms around his neck. He could feel her tears against his chest and raised a hand to rub her back.
