[IRP] The First of Many

[Breadophile]

Shad's worries were so intense Kalin could feel them. She wasn't sure why he was worried though. His expert magical abilities deflected the giant rock and it didn't take a genius to figure out its trajectory. It flew past them, making things a little hotter than Kalin wanted them, but otherwise landing harmlessly in a giant patch of dirt outside the village.

Glad that's not my land.

Woohoo! Nice going!... uh... hello?

Oh hey, he's unconscious. Hooo boy.

Kalin went with her judgment over her instincts and decided to gently glide towards the ground. Looking down at the bandit schmuck that she stole a sword from earlier, she noticed a distinct red hue about him. She made the assumption Grass didn't have some sort of itch for crimson attire that he just had to scratch in the middle of the battle, inferring logically that there weren't going to be any more flaming rocks anytime soon. Kalin hooked an arm behind her to prevent Shad from following off, but it was mostly luck that the sword and the book didn't fall off to the ground.

Mostly luck. The sword and the book ended up falling off the pegasus as soon as the two landed. Kalin also decided that she had had enough of her annoying her metal boots on and slid them off, having them fall to the ground too. She took most of the skin-protecting padding off and slid on her snow boots. It looked weird to be sure, but she didn't have any normal shoes and the metal boots were hard to walk in. Cry more. She could hear Ray in her head. In any case, the snow boots, while awkward walking shoes to most people, were second nature to Kalin by now.

Before Kalin had left Ilia she didn't think it was possible to be too hot. She assumed there wasn't enough fire in the world for something like that. Well boy, was she wrong.

Hope he's alright...

In Ilia we used bodily contact when somebody was freezing to death, but... I don't think that's gonna work. Well, whatever. Either way, I can't exactly leave him here or my pegasus will murder him.

Kalin tossed off her staff and lance.

"Hrrrrraaah!" she screamed as she held Shad in her arms while jumping off the pegasus. He couldn't be on without her, so she couldn't climb down to help the unconscious man off. It was also going to be extremely difficult for the two to get back onto the pegasus with him like this, so she decided she'd have to carry him to a hospital. First though, she sat him on the ground, then removed her goggles to get a better look.

She looked for the items he dropped. A book and a magical rapier.

Expensive magical rapier.

...

...no, I'd better not.

Kalin then stuck the sword in the somewhat discreet sheath she missed the first couple of times looking for it. She also picked up the book and set it on top of Shad, following up her picking him up again.

Is there a doctor in the house? I don't have a restore staff...

She walked towards Grass, who was currently all over the houses and some parts of the blonde woman's clothing. It would be more accurate to say she walked towards the general vicinity of where he used to be, and towards her... friends?
