Chapter 208: Largest Volcano On Hydrous, Mordena (1/2)

I was having a hard time thinking, but I had enough brain to figure out where I had gone wrong in my assumptions about Fireden and the others. I had forgotten that they were really only parts of their real primal bodies that I didn't even know the location of yet.

”That means that the Demons did break this world, but it just wasn't The Scourge. Emfirza needs to be removed, but there is not a chance that you could fight even a Shard of him. Something as old as that couldn't be fought if you had all four of us,” Fireden explained, and I grunted, giving an almost imperceptible nod.

”Yeah… You're… Not whole… Come back… Again,” and I started to paint again and felt dizzy.

”Yes, that is the only way that this place could be saved and returned. Now, time for a nap,” Fireden said as my eyes peeled open with my mouth in a soundless scream as my leg was stretched.

Then the world went black.

[Change to View of Fireden and Tchick]

As Zack Foreman passed out, Fireden started to work. While this might be the worst, it was not the only broken bone.

Thread thin tendrils of fire sprouted from Fireden's hands, and then they pierced the skin. Using his expert skills of sense and control, the Fire Elemental adjusted the break to line up.

While Zack could heal, the bones needed to be set, or the healing would be the same if a normal bone was left to heal without being set. While Firden did this, Tchick came over to sit beside Zack's unconscious body and then reached a handout, touching Zack's arm.

The moment Tchick's fingers touched the skin, he ripped them back in horror.

”How is he still alive? The body… There is so much damage! You said it was only fifteen feet! This… it is like he was dropped from Death's Domain in the sky!” Tchick exclaimed in disbelief.

Fireden knew this was true; the thing that had brought us here had caused even him to blackout, which was impossible. The fall had broken his leg, but it was the trip that had put his body into this condition.

”This one is tough because he is an idiot,” Fireden said with a chuckle as he worked, but Tchick gave him a strained look.

”You say he is tough because he is stupid?” Tchick asked, a bit confused, but Firden shook his head no.

”No, he is an idiot that doesn't know how to quit, not stupid. Acts before thinking sometimes, but that is because he cares too much about everything. Mark my words, if he says he will be back, Zack will be back,” Fireden said, and Tchick nodded, but then Fireden asked, ”Can you tell me about the Kuala and Nafa? No spitting this time; you are not a child.”
