Ty wakes up some time later in a daze.  To his surprise, he sees the large dark fox now curled up around him in a deep sleep.  Not really sure what had given her a change of heart, he thinks, "Well, maybe she is in a similar position as I am; just dazed and confused, and lacks company.  With Pachi still stuck in the tree where I left him, I could use some companionship." Then he looks to the incisions in his hind leg made by her teeth earlier in the temple, and realizes that it would be a while before he could truly trust her.  At the moment, everything was so hazy...the comfort of her fur overwhelms him and he nuzzles her lightly, hoping that he will have more energy the next time he awakens.
