“What do you actually know about healing.” The way Lieutenant Ailill spoke made his question more of a scornful statement of disbelief.
Garkhen took a moment to calm himself. It was clear the elf wished to
anger him, and Garkhen was just as determined not to become angry.
“I have some skill in spell-prayers of healing...” he began.
“But no actual knowledge of it. Bah! Might as well be another bumbling
child from some human village. But if the Captain says you are under my
command, then I will make the best of you I can. Can you at least follow
orders?”
“Yes, sir,” Garkhen replied, quietly.
Lieutenant Ailill snorted. “I suppose that will do. Then my first order
is to go fetch the pot of water off the fire. I need to clean some
bandages. Some of my patients are due to have theirs replaced.”
