Battle In the Night

Tolkalee glanced up at her. "Nothing, I've seen worse." He was lieing, he had seen worse before, but it wasn't nothing.

"He knows what he's doing," Seth tried reassuring her quietly.
"Seth could you get me some warm water please," Tolkalee said as he began gently rubbing the disinfectant into the wound.

"There is no chance," Tolkalee reassured her. "I'm to stubborn to let that happen. And I'm willing to bet you are to."

"And I've seen worse," Tolkalee began wrapping the wound.

"Currently, we're headed for the valley. The kingdom there is under attack and we were sent to back them up. We'll be heading down the mountain to the forest tomorrow," Seth explained. He seemed more relaxed, and open now.

"Oh, that's not necessar-"
"It's fine," Seth interrupted Tolkalee. Giving him a hard look, then turning back to Kat. "We would very much appreciate your help."

Tolkalee was looking at Seth with annoyance, but replaced it with a smile. "You know it would probably be better if you came with us anyway. I'll be able to keep an eye on that wound better," he shrugged. After he was done he stood up, picked up his things, and began putting things away. After Tolk was out of ear shot, Seth sat down by the fire again.
"How long have you had the curse?" he asked in a low voice.

"I want to help you," Seth looked at her. "Will you let me?"

Tolkalee glanced back at Seth while he talked with Kat. Then he turned to the other two that were there. "You know," he looked down at what he was doing. "You would probably have a lot more fun fighting people, than you would scorpions," he commented.

Seth nodded, he picked up a log and placed it in the fire. "He might know, I've met him before, he's quite knowledge able."

"It's not a problem, we could honestly use the help, and company." Seth gave a small smile. It was the first one he'd given since Kat arrived.

"So," Seth shifted slightly. "What do you like to do?" He was silently tapping one of his fingers on his knee.

(Cool)
"Archery is fun," Seth commented. "I like to practice, when I'm not being sent on missions to either save the world, or save a kingdom. I do have one goal that I've yet to meet, which is why I keep going."

"In what ever free time I have, I like to explore, or read. I really want to find the time to go ride elephants," Seth said kind of sheepishly.

"Yeah, we're gonna be leaving early tomorrow morning," Seth stood up and walked across the room bringing back a wool blanket. He held it out to Kat. "It's going to drop well bellow freezing tonight, you're going to want this."

Seth shrugged, but placed the blanket on the chair and walked away. Tolkalee came over and placed a cup next to her. "This will help keep any infection away," he explained. Then he glanced after Seth. "How'd you do that?"
