The pastel haired cleric ran over to the unconscious man. He pressed his pointer and middle finger against the man's
smooth neck as he checked his carotid pulse. After feeling the weak throb of his pulse against his skin, he instantaneously started to drag the man over to the examination. He struggled to lift the inanimate body onto the table, taking a few deep breaths feeling the exhaustion from the diligent day. He tried to gently shake the man awake and spoke in a deafening obtrusive tone.

"My name is Kihyun. I have to cut your shirt off so I can heal your wound,"

Kihyun waited a few seconds hoping to get a response before he reached for a pair of shears on the side table. He proceeded to cut the blood-soaked tunic down the middle and across the short sleeves to reveal the unconscious man's black and blue covered chest, and the deep laceration on his side that was currently gushing dark, scarlet blood.

"What happened to you?"

Kihyun took a deep calming breath as he placed his palms against the wound, earning him a low growl from the man. He focused on his divine powers as the same golden radiant light slowly started to glow from his palms. Kihyun felt the frayed skin start to gradually regenerate as blood drained between his fingers, slowly dripping down onto the examination table and then down in between the wooden floorboards.

His eyes become heavy as the last final pieces of skin reattach and returned to its original smooth texture. Relieved to be finally finished, Kihyun walked over to one of the many pantries. He grabbed a large bottle filled with a yellow greasy consistency along with a white pillow and matching blanket. He returned to the unconscious man and opened the lid. He dipped his fingertips into the ointment and began gently applying it over the dark purple bruises that littered his tanned skin. He pulled the blanket over the man's body. Now that the immediate panic had finally passed, he took some time to examine the man before him.

Kihyun carefully placed his hand behind the sleeping man's head and weaved his petite fingers through his soft light brown hair. He lifted it up a couple inches as he placed the pillow underneath. The man's skin looked smooth as satin, his closed eyes showing off his long delicate lashes. His heart-shaped face gave him a strong cut jawline, and lastly, Kihyun's eyes drifted to the man's parted full lips that were slightly chapped. He snapped out of his charmed daze as the man shifted before going back to rest.
Deciding to let him sleep, Kihyun walked over to a nearby guest chair. He sat down and groaned as he laid his head back against the wall. His eyes grew heavy as he started to fall asleep with his arms crossed over his chest.

"What is your plan, Lathander?"
