Evaneglina, with her eyes still closed to the pain, nodded to Beorn's words. She could make no other motion. The Adrenaline had worn and the pain from the burns intensified as did the strain she'd put on her muscles to lift that tree. She had help, of course, but he could only do some much without leverage. She thought it odd as to why Brother mentioned the prince and seemed to disregard the King's injuries. Did he not see?

Suddenly, Evangelina's eyes sprang open and she looked on the King with new eyes. She saw. He wasn't as bad as everyone claimed he was, what he claimed he was. If he were, he wouldn't have nearly gotten himself killed to save her from a fire.He was angry about it too, which was especially odd. Not only did he care, he cared enough to be angry when she put herself in harm's way.

She attempted to stand up, still holding her hands for fear of touching them to anything but she could only manage a whimper and a cough. Smoke still filled her lungs and she did not take in enough air. Her head and chest ached but she fought it. "Your Grace?" she called wishing she weren't so hurt so she could properly appraise him, all she could manage was a visual once-over from where she was against the wall. Looking at him through blurry eyes, he was covered in dirt, soot, debris and flakes of burned skin. he'd survive, like Boren said but he would n't be very active. She had a feeling her job may have gotten a lot harder, but perhaps a bit more pleasant. It was an act, a mask, she realized, this monster he wore, but so rather do mask cover the eyes. His eyes were dark, and what she thought she saw once, bitterness, self- righteousness, was actually just guarded. There was much more to him than what he let on and there was truth to his father's words. He was hiding, and it was her promise to bring it forth. Perhaps, she'd seen a glimpse of the man behind the mask. "You saved... me..." She breathed, her voice hoarse and she had to suck in a few breathes to continue to speak. "Why?" She managed but before she could hear his answer, she was overcome with a fit of coughing, and gasping before exhaustion, and pain overwhelmed her and the world went dark.
