"Yer ain't go' no spiri' left!" Henrik yelled to Kyle. "Yer've exhausted yerself wi' yer blockin' barriers, an' if yer be doin' more, yer jus' gonna kill yerself! An' don' be wastin' the time I bought yer!"
As Henrik heard a *CRASH* from behind the wall of rock he'd just created, he knew it wouldn't withstand many more blasts from the mage. So, he forcefully locked arms with Kyle, and dragged him off his feet to head further down the tunnel. Once the pair of them caught up with Benjamin, Henrik grabbed hold of him with his free arm - and then carried them both to the bottom, without breaking a sweat.
At last, the group were reunited. However, they had no food - and most of them had very little energy left. It was clear that they were too weak to make it to Kemmelhearth alone.

“L...let go...have to protect...Aliana...” Kyle mumbled before using the last of his energy to seal off the top of the tunnel.

Once Henrik made it to the bottom of the hill, Aliana immediately grabbed Kyle out of his arms, and started trying to talk to him.
"Kyle, that was great
!" she screamed joyfully, hugging him tightly in her arms. However, when he wouldn't respond, her delight swiftly turned into anguish.
"Kyle, say something... Kyle, please wake up
..."

At this point Kyle has gone unconscious.It was hard to tell if he was even still alive...
He...he went too far... the voice said to Aliana.

At this point, Aliana began to well up, as she stroked the lifeless-looking Kyle on his face.
"Is he alive
?" Aliana sobbed, breaking into tears. "Please tell me he's not gone... PLEASE
..."

He’s still there but fading fast...his body wasn’t built for my magic...I never wanted to hurt him. Just to save him...I loved him...but he loved you the most...” the voice said.
Ben looked upset. “Is Kyle okay?”
RE: Reconciliation -
Kyng - 06-27-2019
"No!" Aliana sobbed, as she hugged him even tighter. "He's... he's worn himself out... nearly gone... I'm sorry, Kyle... I'm sorry I killed you... I should never have come here..."
"Cheer up, lady, i' ain't yer fault!" Henrik interrupted. "Don' yer be like yer pointy-eared pal, blamin' yerself fer things tha' clearly ain't nothin' ter do wi' yer!"
Lysander scratched his head. "
Wait, how does Henrik know Lydia ?"

“Can’t we take him to a doctor or something?” Ben asked yearly eyed.
It might help...but you need to hurry...he pushed himself too far, his body can’t handle it... the voice said speaking to Aliana again.

Henrik glanced at the floor, and shook his head.
"Benny boy, yer may be a pint-sized professor, bu' yer ain't no miniature map book! We're no less than two full days o' marchin' from Kemmelhearth, an' there ain't no way the drained dragon-prince will make i' there alive!"
"We're still in Lennart Kingdom, though," Rupert interjected.
"Hah!" Henrik scowled dismissively. "Don't yer know, Lennar' Castle ha' got the maddest medics an' the dumbest doctors in all the land! When 'is father were tryin' ter kill 'imself, they wanted ter cure him wi' ferrets, an' then they cu' out a bi' of his brain! There ain't nothing they can do for poor lil' Kyle today..."

“There has to be someone who can help him” Ben cried. “We can’t just let him die...”
