The dragon nods in acceptance. "As you wish, Your Majesty." She quietly goes to Melica's side and lowers her nose to touch her forehead. Melica closes her eyes, drawing back just a little bit. A faint blue light simmers between them, and then runs down Meli's body, The wounds begin to heal.
Kirinen keeps her eyes straight ahead, refusing to look at Lance. She knows that he lied to her now. She's clearly angry, but also... disappointed. She wanted him to believe that she was strong enough to take it, and be willing to support herself as well as him. As a leader, she knew very well what it was like to need somebody to help you but to choose instead to help others, drawing strength from yourself. But she deserved to make that choice herself.
((Ooo... how melodramatic. But in all seriousness, you so knew she would be sad like this.))
