Chương 124: Distant Silhouettes

Asher fell asleep not long after we all sat by the fire, though I could see his sleep wasn't a restful one from his shallow, sharp breathing. Beads of sweat covered his forehead as he slept. Worried, I glanced at Lucius. He shrugged, being careful to remain silent.

Not long after, Lucius also fell asleep. His deep breaths were a stark reminder of how wrong Asher's breathing was.

I opened my interface and switched to my skills panel. Wasn't there anything I could do for the sorcerer? My first thought was Keeper's Haven, but unfortunately that skill didn't cure anything, it only healed wounds.

Hours passed as I resisted the dark embrace of sleep. I wasn't tired – well, physically, at least – so standing watch seemed like the best choice. Besides, I was too worried about Asher to fall asleep anyways.
