Aelin took on herself to heal Fenrys. So we we saw Rowan shifting from his hawk form right into moment to tear apart ilken that survived us but creature just flew higher and Rowan missed him. Lysandra from shadow breathed "Will anyone took care for that creature or I will have to do that?"
Rowan took bow and arrows that Fenrys dropped and across the wooden floor,he came to the edge and aim arrow of that remain ilken. But of course,of course they had to bet around will he miss his target or not.
And I stood behind all of them,already knowing that Rowan won't miss but I wanted to do something for myself. So I waited. Waited for Rowan to find perfect aim and for that time,I reach for my magic deep in myself,for my fire,my beloved fire,giving her shape and meaning. I lifted one my hand and in moment Rowan shot arrow at remain ilken who could still be seen across the water,one another,made of fire flew right next to prince,shoting it's target and burning ilken before his corpse could fall into sea,until there was nothing left but few bones. So they all turned their attention to me and J just grinned "Well I couldn't let poor fish to suffer with that scum. They should have some better food for eathing. "
Prince grinned back at me and turned around again to face injured warrior and Aedion and said "Pay now"
Aedion and I laughed.
So Aelin ordered Aedion to bring water for Fenrys,In purpose healing him. His father took care of some pirate who wouldn't stop to shut up and he just have been trough this all mess with few scratches.I watched at Lion,trying to understand what exactly I felt when I saw that ilken attacking Aedion and him,but as I knew that wouldn't bring me any good,I pointed my attention again at Aelin and Fenrys arguing.
Wanting for Fenrys to think about something else and not his pain,Aelin asked him "Tell me how your magic works,how can you jump between places?"
"No one know from were it came from or what it is.",Fenrys breathing hard because pain was overwhelming"But it gives me opportunity to jump between certain places in the world. But just on really short distance and just few before it takes my strength,but it is worthy of it on the battlefield. Besides that,I am not really something special. Speed,strength,fast healing,more than average Fae,but in fact the same gifts. I can protect myself and others but I can summon one of the elements."Aelin's hand shivered slightly above his wound "And from what is your shield made off then?" Fenrys tried to move his shoulders to show that he don't know but Gavriel murmured behind them "From arrogance."
Aelin just snorted and I with her but she didn't look away from Fenrys's wound when she said "It appears you can be funny Gavriel." And he answered her with gentle smile that reach deep in my would though it was not meant for me.
"That hummor appears once in century",Fenrys said "so it would be good for you to settle, because this will be the last time you will it." Aelin laughed but I looked at her and I felt how it wasn't exactly funny and some shadow cross her face.
"Sorry.",Fenrys added then he vinced because of his words or pain,I didn't quite know. Maybe because of both.
But Aelin didn't let that bother her,so she pushed it aside asking him " Where are you from? For Lorcan I know he is bastard. "
"He was bastards and on Maeve's court,don't you bother with that.",Fenrys said and his face,kissed by sun,now was pale."Connal and I were sons of nobles from southeeastern part of Maeve's lands..",he stopped there and hissed from pain. "Your parents?",Aedion asked as he notice Aelin to struggle to find words. "Our mother was a warrior",Fenrys said,also struggling with words from pain "And she trained us. Her task was to defend our home and our lands. And to give reports to Maeve." Now both of them breathed hard and Aedion moved so Aelin could lean at him,to find a little strength.
"When Connal and I were about thirty years,we fight to go with her in Dorannele,to see the city,meet the queen and do...whatever young men want with money in their pockets and youth on their side. But when Maeve take look at us",this time he wasn't breathed hard " Everything went wrong."
