[Tighnari's Pov.]
---------------------------

Tighnari was now walking toward the desert, there he should be able to find the herbs that will cure Collei.
He took out his map and looked at the path he had stippeld out.
He was now at Caravan Ribat.
He was supposed to walk through Aaru Village.

He put the map back in his pockets and continued walking through the forest.
A few hours later it was already dark, but Tighnari didn't want to rest now.
He needed to get those herbs as fast as possible, that meant that he wasn't planning on sitting down, resting or even sleeping one bit.
The quicker he gets those herbs, the quicker he can see Collei safe and healthy.

Tighnari looked at the ground, thinking about when Collei was hit by the withering, and how it was his fault.
He suddenly noticed that the grass beneath his feet had changed to sand.
He was now in the desert.
Even though he knew that he couldn't handle the desert that well, he had to do this...
For Collei.

--------

After a little bit of walking he already started feeling dizzy.
He looked around for the nearest place with a bit of shadow.
But his vision was so blurry that he could barely see anything.

"Hey, come look at this fella !"
A voice yelled from not so far away.
He heard footsteps getting closer.
His vision was blurry, but he could see the silhouette of a girl wearing a red bandage that covered her eyes.

"Wait, aren't those... Eremites !"

"Heh, how about we take this one back to the camp ?"
A tall male with the same bandage said.

Tighnari realised that if he stayed here that he could get in grave danger, and then he'll probably not be able to get the cure on time for Collei !

He mustered up the last of his strength and started running away from the Eremites.

"Hey you, get back here !!"
The girl yelled.

The Eremites were now chasing behind him. Tighnari slowly felt his strength fading away.

"No, I can't pass out now !" He thought.

But he really couldn't continue, he slowed down and fell over.

"No... I need... The herbs..." He said.

Suddenly purple lightning could be seen from his blurry eyesight, but he couldn't keep them open any longer.
He slowly closed them.

---------

When Tighnari finally opened his eyes again, he found himself in a tent that he didn't recognise. He felt something cold on his forehead, it was a wet piece of cloth. He lifted the cloth from his head as he sat up.

He put it on the table next to the bed and stood up. He then walked out of the tent and looked around.
He saw that he was in a camp, and looking more clear, it seemed as if it was a matra camp.

But then who brought him here ?
He walked towards a matra that was guarding near his tent and asked him how he ended up here.
The matra told Tighnari that he, some other matra's and the General Mahamatra were on a patrol, since recently the treasure hoarders' activity has been going up massivly...

Then he told him to go the General Mahamarta's office, since he wanted to talk to him.
Tighnari tanked the matra and headed towards the General Mahamatra's office.

Whilst walking to the General's office Tighnari was tinking about a lot of things.
He remembered about 3-5 years ago, when his friend Cyno, who's also a matra, brought in Collei. Cyno told him everything that had happened to her and he told him that he trusted him to keep Collei save.
