the wounds are open and bleeding out
The man’s air was cut off and Ronin couldn’t do much beyond the sour taste of fear in his mouth and the thunder in his chest. He needed to move, to decide, and it was just as the light around him began to dim that - thank the gods - Amalia appeared, sprained wrist and all. Shining with starlight and the luxere’s glow anew, the sight of the Shield rallied him somewhat, and Ronin climbed to his haggard feet to lean in beside her.
The monsters killed this man’s child to draw me out. They said as long as I stay they won’t kill any others. I... I don’t know what to do. Ronin glanced frantically around the blackness that seemed to close in at every corner. There is a house not far away, I just helped someone there. We could try there.
