As Aetrius laid there, she groaned out in further pain as she felt the woman examining her wound more, even when she peeled her flesh she could feel it. She did all she could to not scream out in pain, as well as her pain tolerance was, this...this was a first for her. "My name is Linde. Nice you meet you. Now, lie still." she heard the woman apparently named Linde say. She nodded slowly, her eyes shut tight as whatever Linde had began applying to her wound first burned but then slowly began to numb, then ended as a cooling feeling on her side. A numbing agent, clearly as well as probably a drug to help the patient ignore the pain their body was otherwise feeling. Linde...Linde....Noted..., she repeated the name and committed her name to memory, if she would need it that is.
She looked on as she could still feel her side, and could feel Linde pull and tug as she was sewing up the bolt's entry wound. She breathed heavily from her nose, keeping her breathing as calm as she could in this state. She looked to her side to see Linde grab another bottle of a mysterious liquid and put it to her lips as she had her head lifted off from the ground, "Drink this. It will help clear your head and give you some energy back." Linde said urgently to Aetrius, who only nodded and smelt the liquid in the bottle. Was it truly what she said it was? Poison perhaps? Didn't smell like any poison she knew, or of something that could kill someone. It had a strong smell, and if that was anything to go by, Aetrius knew it would more than likely taste just as bad. But she took the drink anyway and quickly drank the substance, only to cough horribly after she swallowed the blue liquid. She laid her head back down for a moment, then took a deep breath and tried her best to slowly get back to her feet, allbeit she was incredibly weak and staggered a bit as she stood up, gently holding her side where the bolt had previously been. "Th-thank you, Linde..." Aetrius said softly as she looked at the doctor, giving her a very small smile, she could feel a slight blush over come her face, and looked back away, to manage to see her mask still on the ground. It was broken, cracked all the way through, no way to properly fix it. She huffed at the sight of her damaged mask, one she made herself years ago. She sighed as the mask would be of no more use, and left it where it lie. Perhaps she could find a better mask, or if need be make one for herself again. The mask while yes was used to hide her identity, she also wore it as a way of not having to see her face, as she wasn't much of a fan of how she looked in recent years mainly due to the ghastly scar that ran down half of her face, disfiguring her rather badly.
She looked back at Linde, then at the male in the hood who was apparently now tending to the others, "So...Now what? Are we going to deal with more matters, or can I be on my way now...?" Aetrius said with a slight groan as she held her side, she knew leaving on her own wouldn't be the wisest decision due to how badly injured she was, but at the same time she wasn't one for companions.
