Conley Brothers

Camilla set to work, healing as much as she could with magic before having to stitch her face up and bandage it, including an eye patch. Time would tell if she would keep her sight or not but the eye itself was healer over.

It took awhile for her to finish, leaving her exhausted and Adanya too who still rested against Kaz, not even having realized she had been gripping his hand the whole time
 
"She should be ok...I'll check th4 bandages again tomorrow and try to heal more but....time will tell...that was a deep cut and.." she didn't finish that thought.

"Vlad should be fine with more rest..Chib too I hope...I sensed no darkness in either of them...."
 
"Good," Kazimir said simply. "Where should Chib go? He cannot sleep on the ground in his condition, can he? Will you stay here with all of them?"

The twins had quietly slipped away, crawling into bed with Vlad and cuddling close to Star. Their faces were pale, their eyes wide with fear as they looked down at their guardian.
 
Camilla looked over at Chib "It will be alright for one night...just need to keep the fire going" she reasoned. Camping was nothing new to any of them and she knew Chib.he would be fine.

"I'll stay and help keep an eye on them" and she was sure the kids could use extra support and comfort too. Camilla herself looked ready to pass out though
 
"Alright," Kazimir agreed. He nodded to the wagon. "You should sleep on the bench. It is surprisingly comfortable as a bed. I will stay with Chib."
 
Camilla nodded a little "thank you..I..couldn't have done so much without your help" she said before slowly getting to her feet. Shaky and unsteady. She needed rest almost as much as the other two did.

Start looked up when he heard the door open again
 
The twins jumped and shifted to look at Camilla. "You should eat," stated Tam.
Tim slid out of the loft bed and inched to the tiny kitchen to get her something.
 
Camilla nodded, sitting on the bench "I'll stay here tonight alright? Vlad will be fine but just in case" besides rhat she lacked the energy
 
The twins nodded wordlessly. Tam's hand inched over to take Star's hand and held it. They were both scared.
Tim got Camilla a very simple supper and presented it to her gravely. Beans on toast with a few wilted leaves to act as a salad.

Camilla smiled and accepted the plate "thank you" she said softly, it was a sweet gesture and she would eat it too.

"You know how I get so tired after I heal someone?" She asked the boys.

Star didn't mind, he was a little scared too, seeing Vlad like that
 
"Well. That's whats happened to Vlad. He healed Chib. Pushed put the evil trying to take him" she explained "Vlad saved him but now he is very tired and just needs to sleep so he can be strong again. Just like I sleep after I heal someone" she hoped that explaining that way would help put them at ease
 
"We did not know Vlad could heal people," Tim said slowly as Tam shook their head. "Why doesn't he work with you?"

"It's a different kind of healing" Camilla said, looking over at Vlad "he doesn't heal wounds and illness like I do" this was hard to explain
 
She smiled a little "kind of but not exactly...it's difficult to explain" she thought for a moment "let's look at it like this. I can heal the damage but Vlad pushed out what caused it...like..when you skid your knee and you get little pebbles and dirt in there. I could heal it sure. But you'd have pebbles and dirt under your skin that would make you sick after awhile because it doesn't belong there. With Chib. He had something deep onside him that didn't belong and made him sick. I couldn't take it out. That's what Vlad had to do. He took out what didn't belong now I can heal the damage"
 
The twins nodded slowly, the light dawning in their eyes. "Oh! That makes sense."
"you should rest if you are done eating," Tam said, climbing down to take her plate.
Tim scooted over to take Star's hand, feeling alone even though Tam was only a few paces away.
 
She smiled. Glad that made made sense to them. If jt hadn't she wasn't sure how else to go about it. "Alright. I'll be right here if any if you need me in the night ok?"

Star didn't mind. He was less scared now but still a little scared so held on to the hand and stayed snuggled close
 
Tam cleaned up properly as Vlad had taught them. The wagon was too small for things to be left lying about and not in their proper place. Then climbed up into bed and laid down next to Vlad, cuddling up. He was so cold! Why was he so cold.

"Star, will you go to see Claudius tonight?" Tim whispered as darkness slowly took over the wagon.
