Ernestus slowly opened the door, and averted his gaze from her at first out of respect.
"Do I need to go hide?" Elra asked while trying not to cry. She gave in putting her head in her hands and cried a bit,
"He was trying to break in. I didn't mean..." she paused and let the tears flow.
"If he wouldn't have struggled.."Ernestus sighed
"Its alright. Let it out of your system if you need to." he said as he approached.
"I won't need the salve." he then said, his hands beginning to glow a small radiant light. Ernestus knelt, and his hands hovered over the wound, it slowly closing and coming back together as if time itself was reversing on that one spot alone.
He briefly peeked at some of the scars that she had on her arm,
"Everyone has scars, both mental and physical. They may be subtle or obvious." he kept his hands over the wound to make sure it fully healed.
"Do not think yourself a monster. What you did was admittedly a bit rash, but for all we know, the man could of been an assassin. The princess is leading our party after all."The wound was closed, and he shook his hands as the glow faded away. Magic slowly made his hands numb the longer he channelled it.
Ernestus sighed as he stood up,
"You are not alone." he hesitated as he turned away to leave,
"I too, have a beast within." he then left Elra to rest.
