"Victor?" I shook my head. "No, please don't. He believed me."
Korra let out a low whistle. "For real? Him?"
"I...think so. He could have killed me, but he didn't."
"I'm surprised he had the strength to try," Gayron said, scrutinizing Victor. "I was sure I killed him in Brithlite."
I took a breath and turned, making my way toward the Justice Hero. On my second step, my leg buckled, and I fell against Fable, wincing.
"Don't try to walk," R'lissea said, taking my arm.
She effortlessly lifted me onto Fable's back, her hand lingering on my thigh. Her eyes were filled with concern, and she gave me a gentle squeeze.
"I didn't even cast that much magic," I complained.
"You don't have to. Your body is fragile, remember? And with how close things got there... It's no wonder you're tired. Are you sure you want to talk to him? We could take care of it," R'lissea said, glancing at Korra.
