Terra woke up the next morning looking around confused at were they were she saw the others who were still out cold and sitting in the corner was rose watching over them her eyes blood shot from staying up all night watching over everyone.
" rose darling what happened " terra asked her voice trembling from the pain in her left arm pain.
" we were attacked by an abnormal amount of sand worms and a poison dragon your front leg was broken I guess that translates to your arm in this form any way Ishmael and I managed to get you guys to safety" rose explained in a daze barley able to keep awake.
" kid go to sleep I'll keep watch " terra told rose concerned about her mental state.
" you sure you don't really look so well yourself" rose replied
" yes but at least my eyes aren't blood shot from staying up stressed out all night" terra answered
Rose made her way to terra lying her head in her lap " you no what that's a good point" rose said as she fell sound asleep.
Few minutes later Solomon woke up seeing terra awake with rose in her lap terra waved her hand downward gesturing to him to not make too much noise Solomon carefully made his way closer to terra then whispered " what happened while I was out"
"Well based on the info rose gave me were injured from the fall I got poisoned by another dragon and Ishmael was knocked out trying to keep us alive" terra replied
" of course, and your arm it looks dislocated I'm guessing rose did put it back in because she didn't want to cause nerve damage don't worry I fix it" Solomon replied while getting a hold of terra's arm.
" wait you know how to relocate limbs " terra asked
" Yah back at my monastery I learned from the healers so I could my brother incase of injuries on any quest we were sent on" Solomon replied as he pulled terra's arm setting it carefully back into its place. The technique was executed so flawlessly there was little to no pain.
" huh I actually expected that to hurt thanks " terra replied while examining her arm moving it around making sure it was all good.
" No problem I was teaching rose how to do it but she hasn't fully grasped it yet" Solomon replied. Solomon searched for the potions he bought but they were all smashed when he fell off of terra.
" wait if these are all broken what did she use for terra's poison" Solomon whispered to himself. Solomon looked around the cave finding the bowl that rose used to make the anti venom. He examined the he bowl and its contents.
" oh she made this herself it middle level but it should keep terra stable for now well done rose" Solomon whispered to himself.
"You good over there or is there something wrong" terra asked
" well rose managed to buy you 2 more days before the poison takes effect and in your condition we won't be able to reach any cities in 5 more day so we're gonna have to make another high level anti venom from scratch". Solomon replied as he looked around the cave for more ingredients.
Lookng at rose restinging in her lap terra pat her on the head trying to comfort her as she slept "so the poison was only weakened" she asked.
" yep, I'll go deeper into the cave to find some more ingredients I'll be back in a bit" Solomon replied while walking deeper into the cave.
Surprised at Solomon and rose kindness her life wasn't bound to them like Ishmael and they didn't now each other for that long but they cared. It wasn't because of her convenience either they didn't half ass there kind gestures they treated her like and actual friend it was like Ishmael who was friends with her because they were trapped together for so long and it wasn't like her who was kind to them because she finally had others to talk after years of capture. It was just kindness it made her shed a slight tear while smiling and patting rose's head.
Solomon continued down the cave running into a ravine looking down he saw there was water at the bottom. Solomon jumped slowing his descent with his air arcana. Diving into the water swimming deep looking around for fire coral they usually grew in cave ravine like this one. Swimming around searching for the coral he went deeper and deeper using air arcana to filter oxygen out of the water. Searching for hours he couldn't find any fire coral but maybe he could find a substitute in the desert like Cinder weed.
He continued to collect the other ingredients light rose grass, black river leaf and blood roots. Solomon exited the water jumping from wall to wall of the ravine ascending with each jump until he reached the top. He walked back to the entrance were everyone else was laying the ingredients down by terra on a peice of sand stone.
" I'm gonna go out for two more ingredients when I break the ice reseal the cave with earth" Solomon told terra ready to get the final ingredients.
" your not going out there alone are you crazy Ishmael would kill me I'm going with you" terra replied while getting up carefully laying rose head on the ground.
" your still poisoned and some one needs to watch the others while they rest" Solomon replied concerned for terra safety.
" let her follow you she stronger than you think and don't worry I'll watch over rose" said Ishmael as he woke up rubbing his head.
Solomon sighed and looked at terra he asked " are you sure".
"Yah don't worry I'll be fine" terra replied
"Alright " Solomon replied before turning around and breaking the ice sealing of the cave. Solomon and terra were ready to exit the cave when Ishmael looked to terra and said " be careful out there ".
Terra nod her head in agreement and walked off with Solomon sealing off the cave entrance as they left.
Solomon and terra claimed to the top of the sandstone cave to get a better view of the area looking to the west he saw an oasis. Head pointed towards it explaining to terra that the ingredients would most likely be over there. They both made there way to the oasis moving as swift liftly and as carefully as possibly trying to not alert any near by monster. Reaching the oasis they hide behind the trees which desert wyvern drink at the watering hole they snuck around them trying to reach the other side of the watering hole were they spotted a bunch of Cinder weed.
As they were making there way to the other side one of the wyvern lift there head up from the water. They seem to have picked up a scent. See the wyvern move Solomon quickly grabbed Terra and jumped into the water diving deep and swimming to the bottom were the wyvern wouldn't be able to reach them. At the bottom of the waterimg hole he created an air bubble encompassing him and terra.
" He terra you think you can hit them from here with a earth bullet" Solomon asked terra
" Yah but I have a better idea" terra replied while streching her hand out palm facing. Rocks surrounding the watering hole a started to floating around the two wyverns. terra squeezed her hand as the rock crushed the wyvern to death forming a ball of rock around them preventing there Screams form making it out.
Finally getting rid of the wyverns the duo swam to the other side of the watering hole. Solomon picked the Cinder weed on the other side then he turned back to terra asking " could you remove the wyverns bodies from the rock we can use there poison in the anti venom"
Terra dropped the wyverns out the spheres and created a stone jar to hold the poison. Solomon grabbed a sharp stone and used it to cut into the wyverns poison sack draining into the jar.
" Alright let's make our way back to the cave" Solomon said to terra.
They made there way back without much of a problem making there way inside and sealing the entrance behind them.
" you got what you guys needed" Ishmael asked
" yae and thanks to terra we didn't have to worry about the two wyverns" Solomon replied.
Ishmael smerk releasing a small chuckle " I told you she was stronger than you think now let's get you fixed up"
Solomon asked terra to form two bowls, apesto and mortar. Then began making the anti venom expertly crushing and combining the ingredients being carefully making it as concentrated as possible. After finishing the anti venom he instructed terra to drink it telling her it would taste awful while chuckling. Terra chugged the anti venom gaging at the taste Ishmael and Solomon laughter at her them finally having a bit of joy after this terrible day.
