Content that the creature is dead, Seraphina drops her sword and rolls off of the Bugbear's body. She lies on the cool stone ground facing the black stone ceiling, breathing hard and dripping sweat.
She hears KV calling out to Briela, reminding her of long ago how the giant man made her feel safe, how she cried herself to sleep in his arms.
She feels the urge to cry now, but there's no sense to it. She had decided she was done crying. She rolls into her knees, picks up her sword and sling, and listens with gratitude as KV comforts Briela with his simple ways.
