Eli looked better than she had seen him on the night of their Wedding Ritual.
It was probably good for one's health not to be under the weight of so many spells.
The black lines on his hands were gone and her eyes watered when she remembered how much he wanted to touch something and not cause its death...how much he wanted to touch her.
The heavy chains that attached his hands to the floor would make that impossible.
"How are you? Did he hurt you? Are you okay?" He bombarded her with questions.
Wasn't he even bothered about the fact that she had kept secrets from him? That she was part of the reason this was happening to him?
She had expected to meet him a little defensive and angry, not totally just worried about her.
"I am fine. You don't look too well." She said with a strained smile.
"Tick-tock," Alaris said behind them.
