Grimm of the Riddermark
As Grimm helped to hobbit up a crow sat down on his shoulder. Grimm then saw that it was Avalon. "Avalon!" he said. The crow cawed and picked on his shoulder. Grimm began to understand that something was wrong. "What is it? What's wrong?" he asked. Avalon flew away and Grimm ran after as she continued cawing.Cree? She must be in danger, he thought. After a while Avalon flew down and alnded on someone that was lying on the ground. Grimm fell down on his knees and saw that it was Cree. He coughed. All the smoke made it hard to breath. "Cree?! Oh no! Not that curse again, not now." he said and lifted her up. He carried her back away from the fire a bit and laid her down. He ran after some water and bathed her forehead. Her eyes opened and she coughed. "Grimm....?" she said and her eyes rolled. Grimm bathed her forehead some more and tried to wake her. "Don't fade again, my Lady! Don't!" he said and his voice was worried. His gaze blurred as his eyes got filled with tears. He shook her but nothing happened. The fact that he couldn't help her to get rid of it was hard for him. He burried his face in his hands and got almost paniced of what he should do. He laid his forehead to the muddy ground and cried out his anger.
His hair was filled with mud and his face too. He continued bathing Cree's forehead in hope that she would wake up again. For some reason he began to think that this was his fault. He had left Cree, and she had faded. The curse took hard on her now because of the reason that she came to her too late to help her. He laid his on her chest and listened to her heart. She is still alive, so she must wake up soon The hobbit that Grimm helped passed by and said "What have happened?" Grimm shook his head and said to the hobbit "She have faded, she is sick." The hobbit felt sorry and said "Is there anything I can do to help?" Grimm sighed. "I am sorry, master hobbit, but I am afraid no one can do anything. We will have to wait for her to wake up." He looked at Cree's face that looked scared and sad. He stroke her cheek and smiled.
