A place of healing... like a hospital.  |

Talia lie still.. no movement but shallow breathing... her coloring pale, her face stained with tears and her dress dirtied and bloodsoaked... she was fading fast...
The healer kneels beside Talia..he places his hands onto her forehead and one on her wound..he can tell she is near death. He brings out a potion and applies it to her wound. The bleeding starts to slow..he packs her wound and places a cool cloth upon her head.. softly stating a chant..barely audible..
Talia's pulse starts to get stronger gradually... she still has her eyes closed and her coloring still pale.. "Do not leave child...stay with us" the healer says to her.
Galan rushes into the building, and looks around and breathlessly asks the first person he sees, "Talia... where's Talia?"
"Um, a peasant girl was brought in about an hour ago." The young page said as he nervously looked at a door.
Galan rushes through that door to see the healer leaning over her. "Talia!" He cries out as he kneels beside the healer and takes her hand.
"Knight Galan... she is known to you?" The healer looked at him.. not knowing their relationship...
Talia stired a bit...

"She is my fiance." He replied looking only at Talia, unable to take his eyes off her. He carressed her hair. "Will she be alright, healer?"
The healer smiled softly.. "Yes.. she will... the bleeding has stopped... it appears she was attacked... stabbed.. she called for you and fell unconscious I was told.."
Talia started to breath more stabile and her color started to come back slowly..
It is then that Galan notices the chain with his signet ring is gone, and he realizes what had happened. "It's my fault! I gave her my signet ring to wear around her neck... it made her a target!"
The healer looked at him.. realizing what he felt.. "Knight Galan, you cannot blame yourself..."
For the first time, Galan looks up at the healer. His voice is like steel when he speaks. "You're right, healer. The one to blame is the one who did this!"
He gets up, eyes blazing. "Please, take care of her. I'll be back as soon as I bring the culprit to justice!" Galan turns and leaves abrurptly.
The healer looked back down at Talia.. he lifted her and carried her in to rest on a cot and clean her up...

The healer frowned. He could understand the knight's wish to bring to justice the man who had done this to his beloved, but, this young lady needed him here right now.
He sits in a chair next to her and holds her hand, speaking gently. "He shall be back soon."

Reluctantly, the healer gets up and leaves. There really wasn't anything he could do for her now but let her rest, and he had other patients to see to.

Galan enters the building just as the healer exits a room.
"Sir Galan. Your fiance has been anxious to see you."
"She's awake?" He asks as the healer leads him to where she's resting.
"The last I checked on her, she was asleep, but you may see her." He stops at the door and lets Galan in alone.
Galan goes into Talia's room and approaches her bed saying softly. "Milady."

Galan returns her smile as a tear of joy comes from his eyes to see her alive. "I love you, too, milady."

"Hush" Galan says softly as he kisses her forehead and wipes her tears. "What's important is that you are alive!"
Then he smiles at her as he shows her the signet ring on his finger. "Besides, I got it back and the fiend who did this to you is in jail... I should have killed the no good..." he stops before he starts cursing.

He starts to reach into his pocket.
