After a few minutes, they managed to relocate to a safer place, the man carries Lada on his back and then looks at Anna and signals her to help him prop the girl down to let her sleep properly, Anna complies and gives Lada a lap pillow for her to rest on, though in Lada's mind, she was disappointed that she had lost the comfort she felt just now.
The man then stands up and walks up to Sonya again, this time with a more serious look.
???: "You're the leader of your group right?"
Sonya: "Hm? Yeah, I am... so what?"
???: "I'll be escorting your group out of this hellhole and into the safety of Rhodes Island, they'll take care of you and your friends there, and give you the help you need"
This had surprised Sonya, she expected this man to leave them to die in this shitty city, with the chaos going around them, but instead he offers them to be escorted out of the city and the Catastrophe into safety, this was it, they were going to be saved.
Sonya looks at his eyes full of fire and determination and faces him.
Sonya: "Can we count on you old man?"
The man reaches for his pickaxe and presents it to her.
???: "I swear on this pickaxe, and my identity as a proud Dwarf, I will do everything to get you and your friends to safety"
The serious look on the man's face shows no malicious intent, but full determination and focus, Sonya chuckles, surprising the others, it had been a while since they had heard Sonya laugh.
Sonya: "Hahaha, No need to be serious with me Old man, I'm not the type for those formal bullshit"
???: "Neither am I, this is why I never get invited to business meetings as always"
This joke lightens the mood of the group.
Sonya: "So who are you old man?"
???: "My names Thornurn Fortress an old dwarf... or durin in this case, you can call me Thorn or Grandpa if you'd like!"
Thorn makes a peace sign, like a goofy old grandpa trying to act cool in front of his grandkids, this makes the others smile and giggle.
Sonya: "Name's Sonya, this is Rosalind, Natalya, and Anna and laslty the one sleeping is Lada"
It was then suddenly followed up by Anna who pointed out something.
Anna: "Sir Thorn, your arm... it's still bleeding"
Drip... drip...
Thorn looks at his shoulder with a flat look
Thorn: "Ah shit, forgot about that"
Sonya bursts into laughter
Sonya: "Bwahahaha! You forgot about that? you really are old!"
Thorn: "Oh hush it brat, I may be old, but this grandpa can still kick some asses, luckily the adrenaline is still kicking up... this is gonna be hard to wrap around..."
Natalya then walks up to Thorn
Natalya: "I can help you with that Sir Thorn"
Thorn: "No need to be formal with me lassie, just call me Thorn or Grandpa if you like"
