Larissa looked at Skye with fear, "Hold on Skye!"
She grabbed to vulnerary that she had dropped before, only to find it was now empty. The retrieved another and quickly administered the medicine to the wounded leg. It quickly became a nicely healing scab.
Larissa bit her lip and propped Skye against the tree to make her more comfortable and to get her away from the blood that sat in a puddle on the ground beside her. At the same time, she watched the young mage fight the other bandit.
How could he be so good? He looked much younger than the two ladies...
That was what Larissa wondered.

"That's ENOUGH!" He felt the book surging in his grasp, and he began to form the electric energy in a new way. Instead of discharging it straight, he pulled his arms around in a circle, and laced the lightning through both remaining bandits. The effort was exhausting, but it worked. They were dead, the girls were safe, at least he hoped so.
Realizing that the archer had been injured, Lumino ran over to the tree where he friend had her. He noticed immediately that the would had been healed. He gave a sigh of relief.
"Whew, I'm glad shes ok, are you all right?" He asked to the mage.

Larissa nodded, glancing down to her side to her wrist. It was now bruised, but it was just another thing to worry about and St. Elimine knew that they didn't need anything else to worry about.
"Yeah..." Her voice drifted off as she observed the young mage, "Wow, thanks a lot! You're really strong. How old are you? 10? But you act like you're an adult..."

Lumino sat down in the grass with Larissa, smirking a little bit in spite of himself.
"I'm fourteen, and I'm not so tough, I know stronger people. But, ya know I've been in some dangerous places lately. You...learn to defend yourself, or you don't go too far...."
Matthias....you damn idiot.
"Sorry my manners escaped me, my name is Lumino, and you are?" He asked, holding his hand out to the older mage.

Larissa smiled proudly, her chin raised slightly with even more pride, "I am Larissa, a full-fledged mage!" She then shook his hand gently since he had put it out for her to shake.
She looked over to Skye who seemed to be sleeping soundly in an unconscious sleep, "And this is Skye. She should be up momentarily. But I'd suppose you'd know that...Or might...Whatever."
Larissa looked over to the young mage with curiousity, "Thanks again for saving us, but how can you be so good with magic at a young age?"
Larissa would never admit that he was better than her, but a tinge of jealousy bit at her heart thinking that this kid was better than her. At least she was sure that she was better than him at something...Her secret skill.

"Well" Lumino said, thinking. "I suppose I started my field training in the recent battle at Ostia castle. When...Bern's army invaded...I sort of got caught up in the fighting before I knew it, it was total chaos. After that, there was a little skirmish with pirates in the Nabata Desert. And a few little scuffles from Eturia to here. It's been one hell of a trip." He chuckled. "Experience is the best teacher, isn't that why you are out here anyway?"

Skye slowly slipped back into consciousness, her fingers twitching. She slowly tried to force her eyes open and shifted akwardly.
"What...happened?.." She managed to wipe a trickle of sweat off her forehead and groggily sat up. She failed to notice the dried pool of blood next to her, as well as the young mage boy.

"Wow. It sounds like you've been busy in the recent past..." Larissa replied thoughtfully.
Larissa glanced at Skye, just to see how she was doing. She still slept, slouched on the trunk of the tree, "Skye and I are...Looking for information on some people who I was once very close to. "
She looked to him, "We decided to start in Sacae since it wasn't...Too far from Etruria, which is where we started." Larissa looked up to the baby-blue sky, "But we haven't come across anybody who can help us and the more we have traveled, the more it seems like we've become easy targets for bandits."
Larissa pouted, "Not that...I mean, we don't have trouble with them...Much."
She looked at her cross-legged legs and waited for the young mage, Lumino, to reply.

Someone to protect.....
Lumino was jarred out of his thoughts by Skye waking up. "Good Morning, glad to see you are back with us, Skye was it?" He looked to Larissa again. "Well, I too agree that this world is a very dangerous place to travel alone, it would probably do me some good to have a few extra sets of eyes, not to mention a marksman and a fellow mage. Since we are both looking for people, why don't we travel together for a bit? It might be safer for all of us."

Larissa blinked both in surprise and glee, "You mean you'll come with us for free?"
She turned to Skye and yelled, "SKYE!!!! WAKE UP!!! Meet Lumino! He's coming with us!" Like most of her screams, this one was able to annoy birds in their nests and the flew away in large swarms.
If Lumino wanted to get out of this journey due to Larissa's loud attitude, it was now too late.

Skye felt uncomfortable, her legs splayed out in front of her. She pushed off with her arms, sitting on her knees. She was mildly surprised when a mage boy greeted her and then turned back to reply to a question Larissa had asked.
She cleared her throat, which felt dry from her previous nap. "Not to be rude or anything, but who are you?" She eyed the boy warily.

"Ah, I forgot, you were unconscious for the greetings. My name is Lumino, I'm not aware if you noticed or not, but I helped you with your little bandit problems back there. And now Larissa here has convinced me, quite exuberantly, that it would be in all of our best interests to travel together, safety in numbers and all that." He said with a smile, extending his hand to her.

Skye blinked in astonishment. He couldn't be any older then 15, yet he acts like a well-educated adult...weird... She took his hand and shook it, pulling away after a second or two.
"Thanks for your help..Lumino." She gave him a small smile and shifted. A burning pain seared through her leg. She looked down to find a scab formed where the axeman had hit her. She ran her fingers over it.
"Pardon, but what is this all about, you joining up with us?"

"Well...it's dangerous for people to travel alone out here. I myself was robbed just a few days ago. You look like you two could use a little extra fire power, and I could use a few extra sets of eyes and ears. If you want to look at it that way, we are both benefiting from this." He explained.

"I suppose your right.." She stretched her body, loosening the stiffness that had settled in her muscles.
She stared at him while doing this, studying his boyish features. This was the boy who saved us? She furrowed her eyebrows. "Just how old are you?" Skye knew that kind of question was rude, but she couldn't help but wonder.
