Chapter 363 Chapter 363 Regaining Their Bearings
She was herself incredibly exhausted from the intense battle that had happened the day before, but among their group she was in the best condition and kept watch through her fatigue.
When Verrader finally awoke, he took her place and the two of them traded off shifts between only the two of them for three days until Bylur and Rehni came to consciousness.
"Ugh!"
Upon waking up, Bylur attempted to lift himself up and found that what usually should have been an easy task took a great string on him.
Despite sleeping for three days straight, he was still worn out and his body stiff. It would likely take even more time till he was fully recovered.
Rehni, woke up not long after him, though she was in slightly better shape than he was. Still not at peak condition, but at least she could move around without too much effort.
"Ah, your awake!" Aralee said, flying up to Rehni. "Here, I bet you are hungry. The first thing Bylur asked for was food when he got up around half hour ago, so I bet you are feeling the same."
Seeing the slab of meat in front of her, Rehni\'s eyes were instinctively drawn to it and her empty stomach let out a series of noises to announce just how famished she was.
Nevertheless, despite her hunger, Rehni held back and trained her gaze back on Aralee. There was much she needed to know before she could indulge in eating.
"Aralee, how long was I out… and where are we?" Rehni said as she turned her head around in every direction.
"Well, you were asleep for about three days, and as for where we are, we don\'t know." Aralee said, looking a bit sheepish.
Rehni was shocked to hear how long she had been unconscious. Still not knowing where they were was even more disconcerting.
There was quite a bit more that Rehni wanted to know, but once she saw that everyone else was alive, she gave in to her hunger and began eating.
Not long after she finished, Bylur and Verrader approached them and the four of them began planning what to do next.
"I would say that these four places are the most likely candidates for where we are right now." Rehni said, as they poured over the maps that each of them had.
Unfortunately, it would be impossible for them to narrow down their exact location without more information. Though even if they knew where they were, it would not really help them out.
They had no means to reach the Roost now that it had been moved into a new separate dimension.
Their identification cuffs had been destroyed, they did not have any return tickets, and any warp portals that they knew about likely no longer existed anyways. Getting back to the Roost right now was all but impossible.
"I doubt that anyone that survived will be leaving anytime soon. They will probably spend the next several months rebuilding before reestablishing the warp portal network." Bylur said with a disheartened sigh.
The Roost had been their home, yet now it seemed they would at least have to wait a while and get quite lucky in order to return.
However, a far more pressing matter was Evelyn\'s condition. She had not woken up yet and her injuries were severe.
Bylur had used his life magic before falling unconscious for three days to seal her wounds so that she would not bleed out, but without specialized healing she would never walk or fly again. Though, as of right now, the most pressing issue was that she might starve to death if she did not wake within at least a week.
"Have you been applying potions to her? She might wake up faster if her body can quicken its healing." Rehni said.
"Of course, we gave her potions! It is just that none of what any of us have on hand are strong enough!" Aralee said a bit defensively. She did not appreciate that it sounded like Rehni was accusing her and Verrader of mistreating their sister.
"Sorry. I was not trying to insinuate anything. I just wanted to know." Rehni said apologetically.
"Ah, my bad." Aralee said regretfully. "I am just a bit high-strung. I understand you are worried about her as well."
Sadly, even after giving Evelyn a full treatment of potions and pills to heal her and replenish her magical energy and stamina, she had shown no signs of waking as of yet.
"I suppose all we can do is wait until we have fully recovered. If by the time Rehni and I are ready to fly again Evelyn has not awoken, I will carry here on my back and will need to find a better healer to help her." Bylur said, wearing a frustrated expression.
He was a user of life magic, but his skills were not good enough to fix Evelyn in her current condition. This made him feel completely and utterly useless.
Regrettably they had no better plan that any of them could think of. All they could do was build their strength back up and hope Evelyn recovered on her own. Otherwise, they would have to cling to the small hope that they could fine an expert healer willing to help them out.
For the next two days, Bylur and Rehni focused solely on getting back into shape and planning out what route they would take based on their possible locations.
In the end they decided that heading southwest was going to be their best bet. Of the four possible locations they had narrowed down this would take them to more adventurous places two out of four times. And even if they were wrong, would not lead them into incredibly dangerous areas.
However, at sunset on the day that they planned to set out, like a small miracle amidst all of the bad luck they had recently had, Evelyn regained consciousness.
