what we leave behind

VAI The huntress "Mm?" Vai raised an eyebrow as they parted, the witch giving Remi's shoulders a reassuring squeeze before she left once more to check on the stew bubbling away on the fire. "Yeah, I handed the Rathskeller over to Edrei. I think the responsibility will be good for her - and I couldn't stay there, knowing that Isla wasn't able to continue her work in the infirmary in the same way..." Giving the pot a stir and hunkering back on her knees, she gazed over her shoulder to the alchemist. "A few others have come forward, too. To help run the place - the Hollowed Ground has more healers than I thought, which is encouraging." She smiled. Not that it had made much of a difference in the interim, but Vai didn't mention that. She arranged a couple of bowls and, when the food was done, ladled it into them and offered one out to Remi. "That should make you feel a little more human."
