Inside the cave, KEKI, is with the girl still shaking almost unconscious, untied her and helps her cover, have rushed TOIRE, INKU and OKE, see that the girl is severely beaten.
There are many blood stains on the walls of the cavern, even on the roof of it.
The girl's appearance indicates that it's not her blood, at least the one on the roof isn't.
They feel a little afraid.
This facet of KEKI may not be the last one you see.
OKE a little surprised asks KEKI what did he do to the guy?
KEKI with some hate tells him that nothing he didn't deserve, maybe he lives in his misery.
TOIRE, approaches, looks worried at the young lady, he will go for his things to cure her, but, KEKI tells her to wait.
She needs something faster, her condition is bad.
KEKI once again uses its healing power, the young woman, has several very deep wounds so it takes a little longer.
The blue liquid completely covers the girl by filling the cave with light a little.
TOIRE asks if she's going to be okay.
KEKI tells him that he can heal his wounds but not restore his energy and believes that everyone needs it, besides, he doesn't know how all this affects him mentally.
TOIRE within if, really concerned you more, if KEKI would be all right after this.
(for a while after KIRO Castle, the girl will still have nightmares that will decrease her intensity according to confidence in her peers and disappear when she passes the TESUTO exam).
At the end of the healing, the girl is not conscious, but, she is no longer shaking.
INKU burdens her, looks sadly at where the young woman was, traces of blood, her blood, gives her anger.
They take her to the cave where they were.
TOIRE moors the horses of the wagon in a more secluded cave, but in view of them.
KEKI stands next to the entrance of the water-covered cave (inside you can see, on the outside you can't tell), see how his companions prepare to sleep, see that TOIRE tucks the girl in.
KEKI turns outward, it's his turn to watch, KEKI, through a small opening of water he catches up with the sky.
TOIRE sees her from a distance, he wakes up later and goes to her (sees her silhouette).
He tells you the moon is beautiful, doesn't he, she says so.
A little more confident, TOIRE sits next to her, she didn't look at him again, TOIRE a little inspired by the tragedy of the girl, begins to tell KEKI her story.
During one of the attacks on the villages, TOIRE lost his parents from a very young age, right in a fire in his village, his parents tried to get his brothers out, he had gone away from home, to bring some bread for food.
Many died, of the children who managed to get out alive, many were left in the care of a woman named HELENA, all the children were of different ages, everyone was taught according to our abilities and our age, they all had tasks at home, so they felt important, he smiled a little, she was a strong and kind woman She took care of them at all times, for many years, always fleeing danger, always thinking about her children, everyone loved her as a mother, but, because she was an older woman, she died a few years ago.
At least she died happy, surrounded by all her children, all grown up at a sufficient age to be able to live alone.
He wistfully tells him that his adored old lady taught him one thing: that for all there is a destiny and an hour, we should only write it ourselves.
KEKI looks at him with empathy, she dares to speak: the responsibility I carry...
TOIRE: the books?
She claims, tells her that her responsibility is to bring them to their destination, otherwise the extinction of their people will have been in vain, she is still not (gets some annoyed) more than an apprentice.
He tells you that a very good apprentice, by the way.
It makes her smile a little, he appreciates the smile.
She explains that she controls the basics, but, she was learning high-level spells and now feels stagnant.
He knows theories because he studied them a lot, but he's never practiced them.
He says she has a future, plus there's a big training ground from that point to NANEKI.
KEKI is grateful to TOIRE, she's right, she has time to practice along the way.
TOIRE reminds her that INKU's guard is already on, so he sends her to sleep.
She gets up calmer, talks to INKU, who thanks that she has warned her, INKU stretches out instead and gets up, sits next to TOIRE, who looks that she, is going to lie near the girl.
KEKI looks at the girl, she breathes calmer.
He lays down and gets to sleep.
