17-On the Expedition
[Though she's not even sure how many of her friends are still in the castle.] How are you doing? [She pauses.] We got attacked by 8 foot tall lizard birds a day or so ago. But don't worry about me, I'm okay. I didn't even get injured.
[Martel's sitting in one of the boats by the prow, just staring off at shore, maybe watching for a glimpse of those birds. To keep her hands busy, she's playing with a bit of string she found and tying it into more and more knots. In a little while, it's just going to be a mess of knots. If anyone knows her, they might say she was upset, even though she'll deny it.]

You were just...out of your element in that fight. Just like I am every time we have to use wings.
That doesn't mean you're not tough.

But I don't suppose it matters now. [She gives him that same small smile.] Thank you for cheering me up a bit, anyway. You're the first person to call me that in a while, you know? [It was nice, knowing that he feels comfortable enough to do that.]

Yeah, well most people tend to be more polite here I've noticed. [a shrug; he doesn't even get insulted nearly as much here]
no subject
I noticed that, too.

...Well, that I could help more out here.

If you feel like you aren't helping out enough, learn more about healing without magic. Or learn enough fighting to help defend the non-fighters. Or more about archeology to help out the people studying that stuff. Or plant and animal biology to help figure out what those creatures were. Or as much as you can about the people who live in the Dead Zone in case we run into them. Or hell, even how to cook better or how to take care of the mounts.
Because we need all of that if we ever want to figure this place out. Fighting's pretty important sure, but it's not gonna be what lets us figure out this place.

Well I do, Tethe'alla needs me. BUt I think there are a lot of people who wanna stay here. So we gotta keep those guys in mind too.

[But then she grows serious.] I probably will have to back, too.

...Maybe, but you should go when you're ready.
