Tal just snorted and didn't try to interfere while Sah healed himself. Even with the Mageglass to boost it, the courier had felt just how shaky his friend's healing magic still was. It was still a welcome addition, but he'd stick with his Mastered version for the time being!
But his grin only widened at Lily's confirmation of the 'stakes' of their little spar, and he grabbed Sah's hand to pull himself to his feet, clapping the hunter on the shoulder - more gently this time - and releasing him to start heading back towards Meadowreach. "Yup. It's why I let you win," he informed the Wild Thunder smugly.
The boys bantered and teased each other all the way back to the cozy home on the hill and its warm and welcoming kitchen, where a delicious dinner would be served before Sah would need to head back to Halo.
But it would be the last time he saw Tal and Alys there for quite some time to come.
