Chapter 6: The Widening Void
After escaping the Grey Painter and learning his identity, the gang learns a little bit more about each other, too.
Tavi
Did the Healing Potion work?
Luxinia
Hard to tell... She is still unconscious, but her breathing has steadied.
Tavi
Baelia? Baelia? Hey, B, can you hear me? Come on, wake up!
Luxinia
Please be careful Tavi. She’s been through a lot…
Tavi
I know but…
Luxinia
You’re a good friend, Tavi. And I know Baelia knows this too. I can feel something stirring in her… Something warm. I think she knows you’re worried.
Tavi
Oh, thank goodness…
Luxinia
But she needs to rest now. I think we all do.
Nyx
What are you… talking about…? I’m fine…
Tavi
I think you’re right, Lux. We’ll need to set up a proper camp for that, though…
Tavi
So that settles it! I’m going to go into those woods and get us what we need for a good old-fashioned campfire and some nice, hearty snacks.
Luxinia
You mean… into the dark, spooky Haunted Woods?
Tavi
You bet I do. You coming?
Luxinia
Um… I think maybe I’ll stay here and look after Baelia.
Tavi
Good idea. All right then, who else is with me? Nyx, Juni?
Juni
Yip!
Nyx
Zzz…
Tavi
Good. She’s finally resting.
Tavi
Looks like it’s just you and me then, buddy.
Juni
Yip yip!
