Laurel got up from her place and headed back to the house. She did not like sitting idle, and she needed more bandages. Moving into the dark room, she squinted to see who was there. When she saw a young woman, she raced to her side.
She winced a little as she knelt by Jesslyn's side 'Thank Eru you are alive!!' she said. Jesslyn struggled for a smile, her face was drained of all strength. Laurel motioned for a healer, and looked up at Ohtaredan and Herebrand. 'Thankyou for your help' she said with a nod.
Turning back to the girl, she looked at her wounds 'You will need time to rest. Please lie down and manage some sleep'
'Where is my brother' she said absently. Laurel took a time to stand, and put her hand on Jesslyn's shoulders 'Rest now. I'll explain everything later' Jesslyn relented a while, nervous at her words, but the healers came and convinced her sleep was what she must do.
She found a place to sit, and got what were supposed to be bandages off a healer. It seemed they were running out of supplies here. She unraveled the bandages first on her leg, and found her assumptions correct. The wound had opened slightly, and she cleaned it as best she could, though it made her feel dizzy. Then with care she began to wrap the new bandage around, and tried to get it as firm as she could.
She stood up and headed out again, seeing the three Elves deep in conversation. She approached slowly, and waited for them to notice her. When they looked over she said 'Have you thought more on our rescue plan?'
