Rettick collapses, losing blood. "Sorry, I have to stop for a while."
Kugal turns back to him. "Do you need one of my healing spells?"
Rett shakes his head. "No, I just need to rest a while..."
"Look, friend, you're injured. You need help-"
"I can handle this, okay? Now be quiet, I need to concentrate."
Rett closes his eyes, and his breathing slows almost to nothing. Kugal bites his lip. This isn't how spells are meant to go. He considers waking Rettick up, but decides against it, and sits by his side to wait, studying his spell book.
After a while [Kugal lost track of time], Rettick sits up. His wounds have healed, and he looks refreshed. Kugal looks at him. Rettick is beaming. "You okay now?"
"I thought I had that spell licked, but I needed to check." He stands, picking up his Rucksack. "C'mon, let's get moving."
They set off once more.
