With two such staunch friends by his side Hadama was able to find the strength to continue. The Voidquicksand Moss's corruption had left shadows on his soul that would take much longer to fade than the ligature marks upon his skin, but Safrin's starlight was strong within him, and the work he did in her name gave him resilience in the face of the Void's creeping taint. Zavien's courage in the face of his own fears and Maea's loyalty and determination to stay by his side only bolstered his own resolve, so that they made their way through the Gambit's twisting, shifting ways without falling prey to further tricks from their floral foes.
Shadows were beginning to fall across the land as they made their way back out again, tired but triumphant in having pushed back a little more of the purple menace, at least for today. Hadama clasped the arms of his friends in gratitude, offering them both a tired but warm smile. "Thank you. Every foray counts. If I can repay the favor, you need only ask."
