Only sheer willpower allowed this young human to drag this very badly injured elf and hir gnome friend to safe shelter. Despite their own injuries and exhaustion so profound they could barely even see straight anymore, they had only one thought. They could not let these two die. It was only after applying bandages they collapsed to the floor, and blacked out. -- Anon Guest
The wall of water had come out of nowhere. Lilly was fortunate to have grabbed a log in the initial confusion. She was luckier to have found shelter from other debris in the fork of a branch. Cold and wet, true, but alive. Lilly washed ashore, scrambling from her log to the muddy gravel of a hill.
There, among the rest of the debris, were two bodies.
Lilly mistook them at first for a parent and a child, but they were adults. And they were alive. She was maybe half the size of the bigger one. Scrawny and slight. But she could roll them away from the rushing water. She could lash together some sticks and some sopping clothes and roll the strangers onto the construction. She could drag them, step by gruelling step, further uphill. To the debatable shelter of a half-collapsed structure that had enough space to be safe from the storm.
