Third Person's POV...
As the group gathered themselves, the weight of exhaustion pressing down on them, Riyan adjusted Syra in his arms. She was unconscious, her normally sharp and calculating expression replaced by an unnatural stillness. Her pale skin looked even paler due to the blood loss, and though she was healing, it was slow—far too slow for his liking. Without a word, he slid one arm beneath her legs and the other around her back, lifting her effortlessly into a princess carry.
Raven's golden eyes twitched, her fists clenching at her sides. Why… Why is she the one being carried?!
Meanwhile, Livia, though conscious, was still weak. The relentless use of her affinity had drained her, and her hands were raw and trembling. Without hesitation, Riyan moved to her side, sliding an arm around her waist to support her as they began walking.
