Chapter 1 - Wounded
Torak crawled into his shelter. The elk had seriously wounded him. A long deep cut ran up through his chest. Squinting, he saw Renn, who was frozen with terror.
"Renn... Help!" he collapsed.

Renn just stared at his bleeding body. She couldn't move. She blinked and took on step forward. Then another, then another. She fell down to his side.
Rolling him over, a look of professionalism crept onto her face. She tucked her hair into her jerkin and began to roll up his. The cut was deep. She had to do something fast. Grasping Torak's medicine horn she pulled out the remains and rubbed it into his wound. His chest felt hard, chiseled. Her hand moved up to his shoulder and then up to his cheek.
She leaned down towards his face.
Torak's eyes opened.
She stopped what she was doing and continued to tend to his wounds. Torak looked up to her.
"Renn?" A warm smile spread across his face.
"Yes Torak?" She replied.
"Thank you." Blushing, she continued her work.
