Amora didn't say a word, though she felt insulted at him calling her a wretch. It wasn't as if she WANTED the bird to take a liking to her. Besides, she was too busy trying to stay on her thin, stick-like legs. Her shoulders were slack, the sleeves nearly dragging on the ground, catching on the occasional branch. The kimono was ruined, for sure, but that wasn't what was worrying the human at the moment. She just wondered how the two of them would get out of here with the deer spirit.<br/><br/>Suddenly, --speak of the devil-- Ahyen appeared, and nearly toppled her weak form onto her back, taking a hold of her arms. Amora's eyes grew huge, her heart in her throat, twitching painfully. What drew her eye instantly was the bright crimson stain on his figure, flowing slowly down his side. He was hurt. Very badly. Her heart called out to him, and she tried to calm him down, though her eyes were nearly as frightened as his.<br/><br/>She heard her master, but she made no acknowledgement towards him. How could he be so cruel at a time like this? "Shh, it's alright. You're going to be ok!" she hushed him, trying to calm her trembling voice, when he suddenly fell to his knees. She gasped, holding onto his thin arms to support him. No, she didn't know what he was saying, but she knew he was pleading, begging her for her life, as if she could give it back to him. How she wished she could.<br/><br/>Suddenly the sound of Naeth made her jolt. A tingle went through her head and spine as she heard her name. It hadn't been long since she heard it; only a few hours, but this was frightening. She had been through plenty here, and that was enough to make even her name seem the most worthless of knowledge to recall. She gave her master a small nod, holding some of the cloth of her sleeve to his neck, and attempted to pull him up on his feet. "Relax, shhh, just stay awake and follow me." She truly wished she was stronger than she was now; even when she was fully healthy she wouldn't be able to fully carry this young man, even if he was thin himself.
