Never have to worry when he was there. He feared more of the times he couldn't be there. It's not like he could follow Mizuki around for the fight that would come soon enough. If he had any say in it Mizuki would be far enough away from the main fight that he would be safe. That went for the two children as well. Though he knew he couldn't ask Mizuki to not fight, that was hardly fair. That and he was more then capable of fighting.

"Yes you do." That was half of the reason Mizuki was even in here in the first place. Though he sighed a little after moving. "Sleep is probably a good idea.. before anyone wakes up and decides to stay up." He rolled his eyes a little at the thought. Knowing his luck the scare of tonight might make either one of them not sleep well, meaning the kids of course.

After a moment he got out to leave Mizuki to wrap his arm and finish whatever he needed to do. Also he was going to check up on the two children just to make sure things were ok. Though it seemed they were so he left well enough alone and laid on the bed waiting for the other to finish and come to bed already.

After a while Mizuki did leave the bathroom. His arm seemed to be wrapped and his hair pulled back. Though something seemed to be on his mind form the look on his face. He never questioned it though as Mizuki joined him and curled up against him like he normally did. It was when he spoke that Thalion had a answer to what was on the other's mind.

Moving a arm to keep the other close he kissed the top of Mizuki's head. "I promise.. I'll always be with you." If he had any control in it. He never wanted to leave the other but he could tell that there was fear behind that thought. He had his own fears but it wouldn't help things to let them show. No he had to remind himself things would be fine. They would win this and they could go about any other business they had to deal with and things would be well.

Things calmed down after that night and stayed that way for a few weeks. Almost too calm in fact with no scout reports of enemy troops and no word on where the King's forces was. Though it was a calm before the storm. Warning bells should have gone off with the morning scouting group not returning on time. But it wasn't too uncommon for them to run a bit late. Though that mistake was soon noticed as a wounded scout reported back or tried to only to be shot down just before the gates.

It was barely enough time to warn or prepare anything that was not already prepared. Right away anyone who was unable to fight as well as children were told to start heading for the escape routes that were planned through the back of the cave. There was a group designated to travel with them to ensure noting happened along the way.

Though this meant that Thalion and Mizuki had little time to explain or further explain to three year olds why they had to go with Neimi. Luckily they had no idea what was going on and the fighting had not gotten this far into the camp so quick words saying they would catch up to them soon enough seemed to convince them that things were alright.
