[After attempting to siphon off some of the excess energy Saori had been suffering with a couple of days before, Eleytheria had been making his way slowly through the forest, trying to head for the mountains. His journal currently recording his progress, you'll be able to see Eley at an angle as he walks... well staggers, his body strangely ghost-like and flickering in and out of view. He's obviously tired, and those mountains seem a long way away...]

If anyone is watching this... I would appreciate your assistance. While I will recover... this will be a slow process alone. Though I know you must all have your own gods... and that some of you do not usually get involved with them in the first place, all I wish to request... is a prayer.

[Of course, it may not work the same here as in his own world, but he's willing to ask and try it. And anyone who wants to go out there and help him directly can feel free to as well.]

Eleytheria...what happened?

[Video]

[winds_voice]

[He pauses now, sitting down where he is to rest and respond.]

...I found Saori in the forest. There was too much power building within her... it was too dangerous to leave her alone. So I tried to help... tried to take some of that energy from her... It was too much. It seems that our energies are not compatible. My body could not endure it.

I will be fine... but it will take time.

[While he "recovers"? ... Eley, Rudy sees you staggering there. Not only that but Eleytheria was looking rather ghostly, for reasons Rudy doesn't even know. All in all, it's only making him feel more concerned.]

What's going on?

[Video]

[winds_voice]

[Ah, that was a familiar voice. He can hear the concern in that question too.]

I made a mistake. I wanted to help someone... but it damaged my body in the process. Do not worry... I will heal in time.

[Video]

[ofwesternwinds]

[When it comes to Rudy, you can't really say "Don't worry" around him and expect him not to worry. Especially when a friend is involved.]

Are you sure? ... Is there anything I can do?

[Eley mentioned a prayer... but would that alone be enough to help?]

[Video]

[complicatedliar]

I do not pray. [He's a god. He's not going to pray to other gods.] However, I may have other means of providing aid.

[At this point, it's a worthwhile offer to make. He still needs allies, and a debt is a debt.]

[Video]

[winds_voice]

[Well... right now he could do with all the aid he can get. Though he has to wonder just what this god could do for him.]

A prayer from others would give me strength... do you have other means to strengthen me? I may be willing to try...

[Video]

[complicatedliar]

My magics are quite... flexible.

I shall have to come to you, I think.

[video]

[windandrain]

I cannot pray to you. If there is another means I can help you, though, I will. You helped me, its my turn to help you.

[video]

[winds_voice]

Ah... thank you. I am trying to reach the mountains... The wind may be stronger there, it should help with my recovery. I hope that I can harness its energy.

Are you... doing all right?

[video]

[windandrain]

There is a teleporter on the edge of the village. A magical gate that will take you right to the mountains. I'll show you, and perhaps I can help with the wind as well.

[Saori stands and walks over towards the camera, examining his location before sending a whirlwind to greet him, tugging gently on his face, beckoning him to follow.]

I am, in fact. Couldn't be better.

[breezing]

A prayer?

[winds_voice]

[He nods.] In my world, belief... prayer... can help to strengthen my kind.

[ ...Well, she's technically a nun, given air nomad culture. 8|a ]

I know a lot of prayers! Umm, what's your name, though?

[Voice]

[puubuu]

Puu! Eleytheria, that's your name, right? I want you help you get better... but... I don't really know how to pray.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

[Oh hey, that's a familiar voice~ Somehow just hearing it offers him some comfort. There was something about it that cheered him up...]

Yes, you are right. Thank you for your concern... If you wish to pray, all you must do is close your eyes, believe in me, will for me to get better. At least that is all the humans seem to do in my home world...

Have faith in me.

[Voice]

[puubuu]

Um... okay! Let me try that! [There's a few moments of silence as Fattycakes does as he's told- at least, he closes his eyes and thinks, "I wish Eleytheria would get better."] There! Did you feel that at all?

[Video]

[de_bel_survivor]

A prayer...

[As the King of Bel, praying to another god should be out of the question. The very thought of the action should be beneath him and his demonic pride won't allow it.]

Are there anything else I can do to aid you?

[Video]

[winds_voice]

...I understand if that would be a problem for you. Even at home, it is not uncommon for people to refuse it.

I believe I will be all right... but if you could spare a thought for me, no matter how small, I would appreciate it.

[risingwinds]

Well, I don't know much about praying, but I'll try and give it a shot! Anything to help a friend.

[And besides, it's the thought that counts, isn't it?]

[winds_voice]

Thank you... I hope that it will provide me with some strength. Believe in me and give me the will to fight on. That is all I ask.

[It wasn't something he'd usually ask for unless he needed it... He preferred it to come naturally and had found it increasingly difficult at home to even contact people, let alone request things. In this case, the thought would definitely count!]

[voice]

[folklorist]

[ Helios gives a sharp intake of air. Oh, dear, this is bad. Very bad. ]

A-Are you alright? Where-where are you?

[video]

[winds_voice]

I am weak... but I can recover. I am heading for the mountains to try to harness the wind's energy there. Saori is leading the way.

If... you wanted to accompany me to the village, I would not be against it. However... the best I can do for my location is this river.

[He'll be recording his general surroundings now, trying to give him the best idea he can.]

Of course I will eventually reach the village... if you were to wait for me there. I require the use of the teleporter.

[video]

[idealism]

I can write a small one for you. What kind of prayer do you need?

[video]

[winds_voice]

Ah... thank you. A prayer for strength, for recovery... Any kind of belief in me that I will get better will help.
