all wrong

By some miracle he had managed to stagger back toward the lake. A few aftershocks had sent him reeling, falling to the earth in a russet heap. It hadn't been easy making his way back on only three legs, the fourth (his back right) suspended in mid air. He had been gone for nearly an hour, maybe even more. His sense of time had been dulled in the eerie underground room lit only by mushrooms. He breathed a slow, even sigh as he spotted her crumpled body on the ground. She was near the lake, passed out - or worse. A whine slipped from between the narrow gap of his teeth as he neared her precariously, dipping his head low and wavering on his three good legs. "Epiphron," he murmured softly, not wanting to startle her. "Epiphron, wake up.." he breathed, pleading with her. He rocked back onto his haunches painfully, allowing his weight to shift comfortably - albeit awkwardly - onto his good hip. "You're alright." He assured himself more than his unconscious bride. "You have to be alright." Front paws splayed forth as he reached to lick her gently across the crown of her head, a crown that had once worn a crown. Oh, how long ago that seemed. "Speech." |
