"Hah-..hck! What are you… doing… Egon! I was...Healing her!" Rauul choked out the words.
"You're dead!" Egon spat.
Adela rushed to the center of the tent, gripped Egon by the elbow, and pulled him back. Her body and voice no longer carried the earlier heaviness, yet she struggled to use her tongue fully and speak.
"Nnnn!" She tugged back with all her might.
Releasing Rauul with a loud grunt, Egon immediately gathered Adela into his arms with the fervor of a man who had been separated from his loved one for years.
She buried her face against his chest.
"I leave you alone for a few moments to search for that bastard, they enchant your tongue and send you off to another man's tent?"
She shook her head, emphasizing that her decision to enter this tent had been entirely her own.
