Even with adrenaline it was unlikely Ratty could have caught up, there was only so much adrenaline could do when you'd magically converted all your strength and energy into magic and thrown it at some people, though it might have let them get a bit closer and traumatise Edric even further, alas he was only likely to have one or two more nightmares about a large oddly intelligent rodent chasing him through the forests after knocking out a bunch of guards, at least he was pretty sure Ratty did that, in the brief time he knew Lizzy she didn't seem capable of any sort of magic in that vein, she was much more of a combat archetype, as he had witnessed VERY clearly when she set the boss on fire... Not that he even missed the asshole, just his coin really.
The leaf had a slight bitter taste, especially as it was chewed and whatever was in it was released, but seemed to be helping, making Ratty feel less drained and exhausted, no a complete recovery by far, but it was certainly a good start, was kinda even tasty when you started to get used to it, hopefully Lizzy had more on her since it seemed Ratty currently couldn't perform much magic without running out, their body was just not big enough to handle as much magic as such spells really needed to work properly, or to deal with the backlash of overcasting by so much, maybe in future there would be ways to cast it more efficiently? Perhaps a slower working alternative or thinner net.
Eventually Pearl seemed to wake back up, having also been invigorated by the leaf's magical properties, and was at first quiet before radiating apologetic feelings, it genuinely seemed to feel bad for overusing magic like that, having acted on instinct to attempt to aid Ratty in capturing the target, only to let him get away with ease, carrying whatever he'd stolen from the village AND knowledge that both Lizzy and Ratty were alive and active, though at least he was unlikely to be able to do anything about it for now, his companion was too ill to travel it seemed, and he was certainly not going to be able to go back to that specific village and report them as killers and an escaped slave... If he even wanted to report them that is, he hadn't seemed very torn up about abandoning his former boss even if he WAS drunk before, and hadn't attempted to extract any sort of revenge though that could have just been overriden by his desperation to get away.
Soon there was a quiet crunching sound as someone approached, crushing the growth underfoot, it looked like one of the town guards.
"Damn... Bastard got away, idiots were too busy watching you, we didn't even notice the bastard was a mage, nevermind that he wanted to steal stuff".
Their voice was a bit odd sounding through their helmet, they were the only one with proper full armour, possibly a retired soldier... Whatever that was.
"You alright there? You got closer to catching the bastard than anyone else did".
The guard questioned, earning a nod from Lizzy.
"Umm... Yes... Just umm, my fri... Familiar had a fall, so we will need to rest for a while".
She answered.
"Alright, just be careful if you come back into town, some folks will be even more fidgety now".
