You awoke with your body weary and hurting. With your eyes open, you looked around, realising you were in a dark section of the dungeon. Not seeing your own or Shuro's party, you were concerned as memories of the fight between the changed chimera Falin and both parties surfaced.
A loud noise interrupted your thoughts, and the ground trembled in response. You couldn't move very much because you were so fatigued. Just lying still against the stone wall. You noticed Falin, the now-turned chimera, emerging from the dark shadows. Her eyes darted all over the space, as if looking for something dangerous. Fortunately, there was none.
Falin's gaze fell on your damaged figure, and she immediately expressed worry. The chimera hastened her speed, her sheer size shaking the ground beneath you with every step. Standing just in front of you, she lowered herself and reached out to touch your face.
Her touch was delicate, which contrasted with the force she used during the battle. Her long dragon tail swished from side to side, and her wings rustled; she was visibly concerned by the minor wounds on your body.
