Elizabeth stared out into the court yard. All her chores were done for the morning and everyone was too busy worrying over whatever it was the king had done to really pay any mind to what she was doing. But because of the risk of attack on their kingdom she was not allowed to wander freely outside the castle walls as she had done before.
Appears in the court yard laying down hurt
*grunts* Ugh...
Elizabeth stood still for a moment staring at the man who had suddenly appeared in the courtyard. What sorcery is this? She thought to herself. "Who are you? Are you a mage? Are you here to kill our king?" Elizabeth called out as she slowly stepped towards the man.
The wind blew rapidly and dark clouds formed as the two of them got closer
John tried to get up. "Ugh.. stupid arm.." said with little breath. He turns his head around and look to the maiden coming near him. "Food...water" He begged.
Elizabeth froze once she noticed the strange clothes he was wearing. "Where are you from mage? And why are you here?" She asked again ignoring his request.
Lightning strikes nearby sending fear and desperation down both Elizabeth's and John's spines
John drops his arm from the fatigue and closes his eyes seeing Elizabeth bending down to help him.
The lightning sent a chill down Elizabeth's spine. She wasn't usually afraid of lightning but there was an ominous feeling to this one. Elizabeth looked back down at the stranger who seemed to have passed out and sighed. Despite her insticts telling her to leave him there she knew she couldn't and with as much streangth as she could muster she half carried and half dragged the man into the stables.
Elizabeth panted and wiped the sweat of of her forehead. Though the strange man wasn't too heavy she struggled to pull him across the courtyard and into the stable. She looked around for a bucket of water. She was going to need it to wake him up.
Once she found one she dragged it towards him and squated next to him. "Hey...! Mage! Wake up!" She said, not willing to pour the bucket of water on him just yet.
