"Me too..." Kallista whispers, sliding down to sit next to Tender. She figures Jullar could use a friendly face and someone to explain things when he wakes up. She does her best to wipe the goo off her sword, then undoes her all-but-destroyed braid and starts fixing it.

Jullar suddenly bolts upright, gasping for air as he reawakens from his unconsciousness. In doing so, he slams his head against a low beam. "Ow! Ah, by the Stories of Ajehfed!" He curses. Then he pauses, wide eyed and surprised. He begins to pat around his body. "Did I die? Or am I still alive?" He asks. He looks around and lets out a sigh of relief when he sees Kallista and Tender. As he turns to face you, you notice a festering wound on his left arm that you didn't see before. It looks bad, but Jullar doesn't seem to notice it.

Kallista stands up and rushes over to Jullar. "Be careful! You're injured, and I don't need you making it worse," she chides. "You... ah, there's really no way to put this delicately, is there? You were eaten by the serpent. You may have been dead for a minute or two, I'm not sure. I cut you out and Tender healed you. You should be fine, but you'll want to take a bath, and maybe get that cut looked at." She gestures to his arm.

Startled awake by Jullar's cursing, Tender sits upright, blinking around, then slumps back against the wall with a wince when she realizes there is no danger. "Oh, Jullar," she waves tiredly. "Glad you're awake. That looks a bit nasty," she informs him, making a face at the festering wound on his arm. "Sorry, I couldn't heal you much; I was too tired."

"You did as much as you could, and it probably saved his life," Kallista counters gently. "Now, you should be resting, both of you."

(I was just rping really so sure)

Fletcher sits up groggily. He looks around apparently confused. He looks no worse for wear, apart from one of his normally blue eyes has been bleached to a stark white, no pupil or iris remains. "Where the hell are w-" He looks horrified as he remembers the events of the past hour.leaping to his feet, he starts to move towards the hold. As he moves he calls over his shoulder to Evi "Get Orimdal, he is gonna want to hear this."

 "Thanks for saving me,"  Evi begins to Fletcher slightly sheepishly, "I thought I was dead for sure.  And I'm glad you're also alrigh... wait?  What's wrong with your eye?" she continues growing concerned for her friend.  Following along after him, making sure to avoid the Sea Monster entrails as best as he could, she added, "And I think everyone is else is checking on Jullar, they managed to get him out of that monster's stomach somehow.  What do you need to tell Orimdal?"

Fletcher gives her a strange look "Families take care of their own. Something his your head? My eyes are just as beautiful as always." He says with a wink "And I need to talk to everyone, including Orimdal."

Jullar only stares when Kallista tells him he was eaten. He gasps and scoffs for a few moments. "That, I... No that's... How am I... What..." He then looks around. "Where's everyone else?"

"Up on deck. They're all fine, don't worry," Kallista says.

"Oh good. Still trying to remember what happened before that rather unconventional encounter." Jullar says, scratching his head.

 Family huh... she thought to herself rather wistfully as she trailed behind Fletcher.  As they made it back to the others she replied to Fletcher, "Something probably did..." remembering for a moment how she was sucked out of the ship into the sea, "...but there actually is something off with your eye.  Can you see normally?  Because it looks like your blinded in one eye."

"Oh good. Still trying to remember what happened before that rather unconventional encounter." Jullar says, scratching his head.

"The captain turned into a demon," Tender tells him helpfully, then pauses. "Or maybe was a demon all along?" She thinks she remembers something about the actual captain being dead, but things were a little fuzzy. 

Fletcher tentatively reaches up to his eye "Now that you mention it, everything does look a little pale...Not important now. I have news."

Fletcher makes his way to the hold, spying most of the group "Please tell me there were no casualties?"

"Well, Jullar got eaten," Tender informs him, then gestures towards the man. "But Kallista cut it open and pulled him out; he's fine now." She lets out a small sigh of relief after looking Fletcher over, making sure he's all in one piece. That was everyone accounted for, then. 

Fletcher blinks slowly. His new white eye seems to almost glow through his eyelid "Huh. Eaten you say?........How d- never mind, I have news. Before the demon-thing loosed the serpent on us, I had a....vision. I saw the eight men, along with Frilis himself. I don't know how they got together, but they were there in the flesh. They were talking about ending something, and a ritual. I think they wanted the five wizards to cast it. Then...." The shock of his memories overwhelm him, and silent tears stain his cheek "I think.....I think Frilis is gone. Knurath got to him, and the rest of them."

“Nobody better get eaten again, because that is not an experience I want to repeat.” Kallista gestures with the dagger she’s in the process of wiping down. “I don’t know if the smell will ever come out of my clothes.“

Tender stares wide-eyed at Fletcher as he talks and then slumps back against the wall again. "All of them?" she asks, shaking her head, barely able to believe it. "That demon, before he flew off," she adds, brow furrowing as she thinks back, "he said that his master needed us, but they knew where another one was now, so we could die." She looks back up at everyone. "Did we...Did we expose Frillis?" 

Orimdal maintains their heading at the helm and looks over to Tender, "P'haps, miss Tender. But yer've no need ta blame yerself. Nor should anyone else here. How were we ta know? Besides. Until this mornin', none o' us knew anythin' about it."

“We couldn't have known,” Kallista agrees. “Now, the question is, do we return to Frillis and these other men, or do we continue on to the wizards?” She thinks for a moment, and then an idea occurs to her. “Fletcher, did the vision seem like it was from the present or the past? Did Frillis appear the same age he is now? You might have seen something from when they were first defeating Knurath.”
