Those words stick with Tarin the whole night, he falls asleep with her words whispering in his ear. Her words. Her smile shining on his lids. Waking up plenty of times during the night, he can't help but scold himself for thinking of her. She is the princess and, after all, she just thinks of him as a friend, right? Worried, he goes for a night stroll around the castle. Stopping by the medical wing, he can't help but take a peek inside. Seeing plenty of injured knights in their beds, he recognizes them all... except for Leo. Squinting, he is trying to think if he is just mistaken about never seeing this man before.
Hellen quickly comes over, asking him to leave but Tarin stays over Leo's bed. "Who is this man?" his shaking fingers pointing at the dirty blonde haired man. Hellen, bringing him away from the sleeping Leo tells him everything he wishes to know. Staying by her desk, they talk quietly to one another and she is revealed the true story of Lily's capture. Bidding her a good night, they part ways, leaving his head buzzing with questions. He hears what this sleeping man has done for Lily and he is sure to thank him in the morning for all he has done. At least for now he hasn't seen the color or anger in Leo's eyes for he looked right into The Shadoweaver's eyes not once but twice.
The morning comes and Leo slowly awakens, getting slowly ready for what the day might bring. The aura of the castle surrounds him again and he can't help but growl for he feels trapped. He is like a dog in a cage... only being let free once his body heals. Looking around the room, he sees Hellen walking his way, informing him that she left the letter right where he asked. Putting it back in his hand, she informs him that the man didn't come back to receive the letter. Immediately sitting up, Leo only causes himself more souring pain. "Gggah!" he screams out but keeps himself folded up. Hellen keeps her arm around him and helps him breathe.
After some convincing, Hellen takes him to town with an arm keeping him above the ground, wrapped tightly around his back. Together, they go right to his spice shop and he, feeling free, informs his boss and hands him the letter, saying his friend Nellaro will pick it up. The drunken boss just places it in the usual spot and goes back to downing the bottle. Leo and Hellen then set off back to the castle but Leo, out of fear of going back there. Sidetracking, he and Hellen spend the whole morning looking at shops and just having fun before she forces him back to those chilly chamber walls.
