Azari had been walking for roughly 20 minutes before reaching the deepest and darkest part of the woods, he walked over a lot of twigs and mulch, tripped a few times almost dropping Killian who had been in and out of consciousness since Azari had found him and he had almost fallen over into a river lets be honest... The young elf was quite clumsy, but it was understandable in this situation, he was terrified to lose the person his heart chose.

Once Azari had finally reached the destination he set the usually bright pink fairy down on the ground, he took one last look at him and looked away, he was bruised and bloody, his hair and his wings had now blackened, he was no longer a pretty sight to look at. It broke Azari's heart seeing such a kind soul in such a state.

"oh Killi... don't worry you'll be in safe hands soon I promise you'll be okay" the hazel eyed male whispered then kissed Killian's head softly being careful of any cuts he may have. Azari stepped back, took a deep breath as he closed his eyes and held his hands out an overwhelming power gushed through his body, one he had never felt before. The wind picked up out of no-where, clouds formed above them, and rain began to fall.

The small baby-faced male was being pushed back by a strong force, it was then that lights began to form around Killian's body, a beautiful glowing woman appeared from thin air, alongside her were millions of small looking creatures, stunning bright lights surrounded them. Azari opened his eyes to see what had appeared, he smiled happily knowing exactly who the woman was he got down on one knee and bowed his head. "Ma'am, thank you so much for heeding my call, I am in desperate need for your help and of course your amazing fireflies that have followed" he spoke formally, complimenting at every chance he could find.

"Azari dear, you have grown into such a handsome young man, please tell me, how is your mother doing these days?" the goddess spoke with such clarity and grace. "unfortunately, mother passed away a few years ago but please, so not shed any tears from those bright beautiful eyes ma'am she would not want that, especially from someone so stunning" Azari said now standing to look at the woman.

"of course, but alas, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Now can you tell me what has happened to your friend here?" the softness of her voice was quite soothing to point the elf was now more relaxed with the situation at hand. "I honestly have no clue, I was walking within the woods to find him as I hadn't heard from him and I found him laying in a bush covered in blood and bruises so I bought him to the one place I knew that could help" he admitted a few tears leaving his eyes, Azari wiped his eyes roughly to show he was strong, he saw crying to be weak in situations such as this. His mother had taught him strength in the toughest of situations.

"hmm...yes, it will take a day or two for this young mans strength to pick up but other than that I will treat him as will my little beauties here, the rest will take its own course of recovery so please do be patient and make sure you look after him darling" The woman replied winking at the elf who now had a tint of pink crossing his usually pale cheeks.

The flustered male nodded and walked over to Killian, taking his hand and squeezing lightly "don't worry, they'll help you my love" he whispered in the fairies ear and wrapped his pinkie around Killian's remembering the first time they ever said 'I love you'. "He's all yours ma'am, please look after him for me, I'll be back in a couple of days to make sure he gets home safely" Azari sighed and smiled at the woman who's name he never had known. "Do not worry dear, Killian is in safe hands but, you already know that" she gave a gently smirk and ordered the fireflies to pick Killian up from the ground and just like that, they were gone. Azari sat on the bug-ridden ground for a while longer just staring at the place Killian had been laying it was only now, he decided to let the tears fall down from his face.
