Sirius and Bear pulled until Marshal sounded the all clear. Then, releasing himself and his companion, he backtracked to where she lay. She was moving to a seated position, even before he arrived or had a chance to free her from her bonds. As he stopped before her, giving her body a critical eye, she thanked him and promptly fell over. “Wooh there” The Warlord said, stepping in and catching her before her head could touch the ground. He lowered her gently to the dirt and then release her.

Looking at her, and shaking his head. “Any volunteers for pulling her off the mountain? No? Didn’t think so” He muttered to his companions. “Help me get her on my back” He instructed Bear. He assumed there was no way to do this without hurting her further. He hoped she didn’t waken again until they arrived. With the vines that still tangled about her wrapping him to secure her, he started down the mountain. Stepping with care so he didn’t jostle his precious cargo any more than he had to.
