Gerald who? she thought for a moment. Gerald, Gerald...she mulled over the name, finally realising that it was none other than Lord Gerald standing outside the door. Shaking the last vestiges of the nightmare from her mind, she stood up, smoothing out a crease in her shirt.
Once standing, she found that she had barely enough energy to keep on her feet, and had to balance herself against the wall. Opening the door also took quite an effort. Esaha wondered how she had lost so much energy, and then remembered the events of the last night, how she had called upon a power she did not know she possessed and how she had made Lord Gerald whole again.
And there he stood outside, his armor and garments soaked with the blood of what she hoped was foes. Gerald looked definitely to be unharmed and the look on his face was not one of pain, but of concern. For her, she realised.
"Err...I'm fine. It was just a pretty bad dream. I do still feel exhausted though, despite all that sleep." A sudden pang of hunger made her realise that the exhaustion was most likely from a lack of energy. She did not exactly understand what had happened the last night, but whatever it was, it must have taken a large amount of energy from her.
"I..." she broke off, not sure how much she could intrude on the Lord's hospitality. "I'm also quite famished." She had meant to say 'hungry' but the word had just blurted itself out, as if her body knew better than the mind what needed to be done. Esaha glanced sheepishly at Lord Gerald, hoping that he brought good news from the battle.
OOC: I'm also working on a post for Sean, but right now I'm too tired to finish it. Tomorrow it shall be. [img]smile.gif[/img]
