Subject: Does anyone know a healer around here?

I hope I am using this thing correctly, if not I must beg your pardon and hope I have not inconvenienced you fine people too much.

I'd like to start of with saying it is not an urgent matter but I might have suffered a few minor burns that I should probably see too before too long. Is there any healing house here where I can have them treated?

I could heal you but what happened?

[holdshisown]

That would be much appreciated, friend. There was... a bird made of flame, I got a bit singed when I tried to help the girl inside of it.

[whatsamada]

[.............................................................]

I see. I wasn't aware that you were caught up in that fight too.

[holdshisown]

[What can he say? Wherever there is trouble there's likely to be a Fëanorion getting involved in it.]

It seemed like the right thing to do at the time. But I think I might have miscalculated a bit...

[whatsamada]

Then where are you?

I'll do my best to heal you as soon as I can.

[holdshisown]

I'm at the outskirts of town, I thought it might be best not to cause any undue worry when the wounds look much worse than they truly are.

There's no hurry, it really isn't too serious... it's mostly just slightly annoying that I let myself get injured in the first place.

[whatsamada]

I wouldn't worry too much about it. You can't always predict what will happen next right?

But I'm on my way, just stay safe until then. Can you tell me what you look like? If you want to find me, I'm a boy with short brown hair.

[holdshisown]

Perhaps... but I'm usualy better at it than this.

I'm the unusualy tall red head, trust me when I say I'm pretty hard to miss.

[ Wow this message is very concerning! Burns are serious! ]

There is a community clinic near the Plaza. Here, I will share a map for you.

[ Zelda imprints a small map of the Plaza and draws an arrow pointing to the clinic. ]

Even if your burns are minor, you ought to get them treated right away. Do you need any assistance reaching the clinic?

[holdshisown]

[He's had worse! The only reason he's seeking medical attention now is mostly to just not freak anyone out by walking around with very visible burns on him.]

Thank you, my lady, your aid is much appreciated.

It's not any great worry, infection is not as prevalent among my people as some others.

[But it should be noted that he's also called getting stabbed a minor flesh wound just to get out of seeing a healer so take his words with a pinch of salt.]

But I wouldn't say no to some company, if it's not too much trouble for you?

[whatsamada]

Even so, don't blame yourself, I know that leads to nowhere. But I'll see you in the meantime!

[And just like Ken promised, he ends up in an area where he was looking for a really tall red head. So far, he didn't seem to spot much until...]

Uh...hey, are you the person I'm supposed to mean?

[He shouted all the way in the distance because hello 7'6 person!!]

[holdshisown]

[There is not much he can do but wait, but it doesn't take long before he hears someone call out to him which makes him turn to greet them. He raises an arm in both greeting and confirmation to the question asked, as he'd said he's pretty hard to miss or confuse for anyone else.]

That I am, and I assume you are the one that offered to heal me?

[whatsamada]

[The more that Ken got closer to him, the more he couldn't help but stare in awe. While he had seen and faced against different kind of creatures before, it was another to see someone so tall that wasn't active trying to fight him!]

A-Ah right, yes, I am!

[Now that that his attention was on his injuries, he gave a small hum.]

I can see why that you said your injuries weren't that bad but I'll still heal you up. Although, I rather you close your eyes first before I summon Kala-Nemi.

[azuresong]

You're hurt!? Oh no! Are you okay!?

I can come help you, wherever you are...!!

[holdshisown]

There truly is no need to worry, child, it's not so very serious an injury. It looks much worse than what it actually is, honestly.

I would not say no to a friendly face and some aid, though, it wouldn't do to go around worrying people by looking like I've lost a battle with an oven.

[holdshisown]

[Over the years he'd grown accustomed to that kind of staring, even among his own rather tall people he usualy stood head and shoulders above them. He gives the boy what he hopes is a reassuring smile to put him a bit more at ease in his presence.]

Well met then, my young friend. I hope I have not inconvenienced you too much with my request?

[Maedhros agreed, there was barely even any blistering. Just on the few places where the fire did a bit more than graze him, but even then it was fairly minor.]

Close my eyes? Why?

TW: Vague sucidial imagery!

[whatsamada]

No, you're not, I'm used to healing my teammates when they're in trouble.

[That said, as he got his Evoker out, he stared at Madehros before looking the other way for a moment.]

But as for closing your eyes...? I can heal you but I need to summon my Persona in a certain way you might not really like.

[azuresong]

[ His words might be an attempt to calm her, but the more he writes the more worried she becomes! ]

Where are you!? If you're injured, you shouldn't move around too much- I will come to you!

[holdshisown]

[Oh no! He made it worse somehow!]

If it will put your mind at ease I will stay put where I am, child, but I'm really not all that hurt. But I know that perhaps seeing it for yourself will better put your fears to rest so I will wait here, just outside of town.

[holdshisown]

That doesn't mean a stranger would not be an inconvenience as a patient, especially one that has as much of a habit to annoy their healers as much as I do.

[The fact that he'd actually sought medical attention was a sign he wasn't seriously hurt, since when he actually needed healing he'd often have to be dragged to the healing halls kicking and screaming.]

Persona? Child... if healing me will cause you any harm or discomfort I'd rather you not do so on my behalf.

[whatsamada]

What? Of course not, it wouldn't cause you harm, I just don't you to be uncomfortable!

[All the while he was slowly backing away to point to the Evoker on his head.]

I don't want you to think I'm uh...hurting myself. [Yes because that totally makes sense.]

[holdshisown]

No, I mean if it would cause you harm.

[Pain is so familiar to him that a bit more of it wouldn't even register most of the time.

He looks confused when he points the strange device at his own head, he has no idea what it is but it makes him feel a bit on edge for some reason.]

What... what do you mean by that? [Yes. There is definetly a sense of unease that is growing in the pit of his stomach now.]

[whatsamada]

[He said before shaking his head.]

No, it's more like that it won't cause me harm but I don't want you think that it will.

[Pause]

Because in order for me to summon my Persona, I think to think I'm in flight or fight mode. Which...will require me my mind to think I'm in danger.

[azuresong]

Yes, please! Stay where you are... I am on my way!

[ AND LYRIA IS RACING!! Packing a small satchel full of things, the small girl will dash out of her home in search of her poor companion.

It doesn't take her long to arrive, but she's pacing back and forth as she looks around. ]

Maedhros!? Maedhros, are you here!?

[holdshisown]

I will stay put, I promise.

[He keeps an eye out for her as he waits. Once he hears her comming he raises a hand in greeting.]

Over here, Lyria!

[The burns truly aren't that bad, part of his face looks a little red as if he'd gotten a bad sunburn and his arms look red and irritated as well with a few small blisters here and there.]

It truly is not so bad. I've had worse when I was learning metalworking as a youngster.
