Dissent V.2 (Private rp)

Pallon smiled slightly. "I'd have to agree with that." He sighed almost blissfully.

Mage smirked. "Well lets see... Feel that Pallon?" He had his hand pressed firmly against Pallons side over the wounds.

"Feel what?"

"Theres your answer." Mage replied standing up. "We need to get him to a real healer, becuase thats as good as you're going to get from me. I cant do anything more to be honest as much as I would like to be able to."

Bear watched his son carefully. "Come here Kal."

Rin released Pallon's wrists as she stood. She patted Mage on the back with a caring smile, "I know we don't say it enough but we're all grateful for you Julian". She looked back to the others then to her husband, "I know d*** well you can't ride with those wounds so it looks like it's our turn on the elephant". She gingerly place a hand on his shoulder and back, "Can you stand"?

Kalten stood and looked down, slowly walking over to stand in front of Bear, "Hey". He was blank faced but his eyes were still flickering with a soft anguish.

[ty_tay]

Mage nodded with a smile. "Eh, I know that, it doesnt always have to be said." He waited to see if they'd need more help.

Pallon attempted to stand but didnt make it far. "Not on my own apparently."

Bear waited for a moment, studying Kalten, before pulling him into a hug. He spoke softly, "I will do everything in my power to protect you son. You dont have to hide from me when you're frightened either. I wont think any less of you for having these fears, they're completely justified."

[ScarletFang]

Rin jumped to hi side before he could hit the ground again, "Mage, would you get his other side"? She wrapped his arm around her shoulders and supported his the best she could.

Kalten hugged Bear around his neck. His voice was quiet and laced with pain, but he didn't shed a single tear as he tightened his hold, "Thank you Papa, I didn't mean to run off again".

[ty_tay]

Mage conceeded and did as Rin asked, helping to support Pallon. He could feel that Pallon tried to lean on him more. "Question. How are we going to get him on the elephant?"

Bear nodded tightening his hug some. "It's ok son. I understand."

[ScarletFang]

Rin pursed her lips in thought, "Well we either ask her to kneel and ear helps hoist him or she just lifts him herself like she did to Kalten. You're lighter than Bear, but I'll still ask Juke when he returns". She moved them forward gently, eyeing the grass for rocks and other debris.

Kalten shivered slightly and chuckled, "Still gotta get used to this parenting thing". After a few more moments he slipped beneath his father's arm and wrapped his arms around his neck, "Bear back ride"?

[ty_tay]

Pallon focused on keeping moving, "..."

"Safer bet would be Bear helping hoist him. The elephant would be more likely to get the wound bleeding again, and we dont want that." Mage replied watching the ground as well. He glanced to Pallon. "Tell me if you start to feel pain in your side again..."

THe others werent far away. Juke had handed off a few of the birds to Wolf and Nick now that they were calm.

Bear chuckled lightly and nodded in agreement to Kalten. "Aye." He loosened his arms when kaltens started to slip beneath them. He chuckled deeper and nodded. "Alright. Hang on." He stood, taking Kalten with him and making sure his son didnt accedentally fall off.

[ScarletFang]

"And no trying to be the manly man and fight through it understand"? Rin warned him with a serious glance. She wouldn't take no for an answer as she looked to Tohveir and Juke, "Guess who was the lucky man to get hurt"?

Kalten buried all but his eyes in Bears shoulders, hiding a smile that could melt any heart. He held on tight and promised himself he'd never let go as he was lifted into the air.

[ty_tay]

Pallon nodded silently.

Tovheir sighed and shook his head. "Of course he did... Alright lets get him back to the city. Is he ok?"

Juke held a look of pure concern. "Yes, will the poor man be alright? We have an excellent staff of healers at the palace, and we will make certain he is well taken care of."

Mage looked at Juke. "You'll have to warn them that he refuses medications and likes to fight back."

Bear walked around to the otherside of the elephant with his son on his back. He looked at Rin Pallon and Mage. "S***, that looks like it hurts."

[ScarletFang]

Rin nodded and looked to the two, her own eyes fighting between concern and irritation, "Mage did a bang up job patching him up... sorta... but he still needs the help of the healers". She glanced between the three men and shook her head as she rested her gaze on Pallon, her eyes turning soft, "No he won't if he knows what's good for him". She spotted Bear and Kalten as they turned the corner, "Bear, we need your muscles".

Kalten's moment of warmth was quickly swept away as he looked at Pallon's side with concern, "Oh sick". He wiggled and dropped to the ground to shuffle through the grass and examine it loser, "How aren't you screaming"?
