Slowly awakening, Valen looked up at Sharille and reached up to stroke her hair with one hand. "My apologies. I guess that once all the danger finally faded, my body gave out. That was a good share of danger, beating up, and damage, even with the magic to fix me up a touch. I'm going to spend a while just recovering, but I think we did good." He sought to gently squeeze her hand with his own.<br/><br/>"I think I'll have to start getting up, and begin to prepare." He drew a deep breath. "I got a long road ahead of me heading back sometime soon." He reached up to gently caress her cheek again. "As much as I enjoy your company I still owe Koko too. I'd be pretty bad help if I left on a task never to pay back what I've borrowed." He smiled to her, stroking her cheek in a tender, caressing manner.<br/><br/>"Albeit your offer does stop me from getting up right away at least." He moved a bit over, patting the bedside. "But are you okay?"
