Eventually, Larry begins to awake. He sets up rather quickly to make sure no enemies were present, then meets Kaz's glaring eyes. He notices that Mistral is down, lying beside him, but seemingly ok.
"Hi, Kaz!
Is everything ok?
Did Mistral get hit hard?
Are you alright?
You seem a bit tired..."
Larry gets up, walks over to Mistral and picks her up, despite Mistral's protests, and the three make their journey back to the little house they had somehow acquired. They rest until they have regained thier stength.
"So...the three of us get ambushed by eight hoodlems...and two of us nearly die in the attempt. I am starting to wonder what I am doing wrong...Mistral...Kaz...My father spoke to me tonight. He has rebuked my failures, and is expecting me to do better from now on. I need help, for I do not know what it is that I lack in skill to be able to face my enemies, and come out victorious. . . "
