[FINN POV]
I rush back to the injured guy with all my might despite being pretty drained from the previous fight against those skeleton warriors, I just hope they can finally rest in peace or more or less pieces now.
I finally got to the injured guy who I never got his name, I ran to him tore a bit of cloth from my already torn shirt to stop the blood flow from his legs, as I was tying the cloth on the stumps that were formerly called legs,he tried to speak but I cut him off.
"*huff*T-thank-"
"You can thank me later once I'm done attending to your wounds"
His breathing was already rushed and him talking would just make him waste more energy than necessary.
A bit of blood got on my shirt what's left of it at least, but that's a small price to pay for some one's life, after making sure the make shift band aid I made was durable and was doing its job I started to talk to the injured guy.I smile looking at my work, I'm sure even doctor princess would be impressed with my proper application of first aid.
(she would not ;))
"Soooo…. what's your name?"
I asked him.
"My name*huff* is*huff*Timothy. Timothy Branwen"
Timothy…Tim had golden coloured hair like mine but his was more on the brighter side…wait isn't it still all yellow at the end of the day, red ruby eyes that had a little bit of shine to them in the night time.
He had pale skin which I will assume is cause of the blood loss, despite the previous features that of his that was rare to see in Ooo what caught my attention was the necklace round his neck, the pendant on the necklace had a wooden sword,a white hilt-less sword housing sapphire coloured gem.
[NOTE: Finn is a bit colour blind so the red colour to him is actually green to others.]
"So Timothy can I call you Tim? I'll just call you Tim,what's a poor fellow like you doing in an obviously evil forest at the middle of the night? Cause you seem like the type that's never fought in his life.No offense."
What I said may seem a little harsh but I wasn't joking , despite the large dark overall hood he was wearing, he seemed like he had enough space in it to sleep like he was sleeping on a bed and the fact that his laps were almost the same size as my arm.
Despite saying no offense he seemed to take my statement to heart based on the way he stared at me with an irritated look. Well that's awkward.
He sighed before contemplating in silence for some time whether to answer me or not, I tried to tell him that he doesn't really need to tell me if he doesn't want to.
"You know if you-"
"Shush I'm still thinking about it"
He said whilst interrupting me.
That little…..He then looks to me as if having decided to answer my question. He sat up a bit and leaned on the tree behind him.
"Ahem as I was saying…. before you RUDELY interrupted me. Thank you….for saving my life."
He then bows his head slightly in gratitude.
"No problem, it was my duty as a hero. My name's Finn Mertens by the way."
I say to him with a toothy grin.
" And to answer your previous question, your right…..I've never really fought in my life, I'm not really an a warrior class adventurer, I'm more of a supporter type adventurer. I needed to enter the dungeon to find my sister , but the guild wouldn't let me if I wasn't registered in a familia."
Warrior type adventurer? Supporter type adventurer? Also when do you need permission to enter a dungeon? Was I trespassing all those times?also a familia?
"Wait what's a familia?"
He pauses abruptly cause of the sudden question. His eyes widen in shock with his mouth slack jawed.
"Did I say something wrong?"
I ask.
"Of course you did!!! how would you not know what a familia is!!! your talking like as if you don't have one!!! how were you then able to use magic? You shouldn't have the ability to manipulate mind without a falna!!"
[NOTE: mind is what they call mana in danmachi I don't know why tho
\(' ')/]
A falna?
" What's a falna?"
That question seemed to have fried his brain cause he froze on the spot for what seemed like a minute , before he recovered, and took a deep breath and gave me a look filled with pity that seemed like he was mocking my intelligence.
"Are you…. retarded Finn?"
He says to me in a serious tone.
"OF COURSE NOT!!!"
I might have overacted, a bit there.
"How else then do you want to explain to me how you do not know what a falna is? Next your going to tell me you don't know that were in tower of babel!!!"
I didn't respond to his statement, and he took my silence as the answer he didn't want to fathom.
" N-No y-you can't be serious-s."
Is it that bad I don't know where I currently am?
(yes Finn, yes it is).
"Moving on-"
"No! Wait a minute! How did you enter the dungeon without a being a member of a familia? Plus you used strange magic? Are you some kind of new type of monster! A fire golem? Or something"
He says while dramatically pointing.
I face palm at the audacity, if I was a monster how in glob's name would I be able to talk to you and know first aid.
"I give up! I don't know how I did that fire golem thing what-cha-ma -call it!! frankly I'm just as confused as you are! I don't remember how I even got here!! Last I remember I was with my brother jake then *BAM* I'm in a random cave"
I said a bit frustrated
There's a bit of an awkward silence before Tim responds to my outburst.
"Look…I'm sorry for calling you a monster, it was dumb, especially since you saved me.But I just don't see how it's possible to have entered babel without having a familia and being able to beat monsters without a falna."
"Ok we've lost track for some time now, you were saying something about you not registering in a familia? If so how are YOU in this tower/dungeon?"
I asked him.
"I wasn't done with what I was saying that time..so yh I wasn't registered with a familia the adventurer's guild pointed me to various familia's in need of helping hands, the search for a familia then led me to-"
His face then morph's into one filled with spite and a bit of guilt.
"The soma familia…..I'm sure you're familiar with the name, soma, the god of wine'…..that drunkard rarely participate in his familia matters nor does he care. The first few month's were manageable no matter how much the familia members maltreated me ,cause the only thing I was concerned about was finding my sister, Theresa.
Then a few days ago… I went about my daily business, getting the party member's stuff ready for the dungeon raid..everything was fine until we got below the tenth floor that's when everything went to hell.
An army of Minotaur's, cobold's and killer ant's were near the entrance as if waiting for us. We ran as fast as our legs could take us, clustering the stair way back up to the first floor until I was suddenly pushed by our party leader….Desmond!! into the darkness below the stair way.
When I came to I was in this graveyard I tried to find my way out but I found trouble instead, and well you know the rest."
