Ester retreated her hand, pulling her sleeve over it so it was no longer in sight. Her eyes darted between Mesaraih and Valehna as they debated. She felt thankful that the human was backing her up, it would be easier for him to give in and tell the others what actually happened. A small smile briefly appeared, though it quickly turned to a scowl when Valehna insisted on cleaning it.<br/><br/>"It won't become infected, I can take care of it." She stated coldly, crossing her arms. She wasn't sure how long she had to leave the wound, but she knew if it was healed now it would reappear on Mesaraih again. In her mind, she knew logically that she was better to have the injury as she didn't need to move around as much as he did. It would benefit them all if he was fully healed.<br/><br/>The elf shifted her attention to Mesaraih, watching his reactions to Valehna's words. Another part of her just didn't want him to be wounded, perhaps because she felt she could trust him. Trust wasn't easily earned with Ester.<br/><br/>"Why would you reject being healed? I doubt Valehna would do anything to hurt you, we all need you." Tal chipped in, furrowing his eyebrows. Something was off. It's not like the mage was particularly trustworthy anyway, but why was Mesaraih backing her up? Perhaps she'd blackmailed him, that would explain the weird tension between them.<br/><br/>He began to approach her. "Just let her have a look."
