"Where is he?" I stormed into the next healer's tent as I looked around.
"Priam!" I shouted. I didn't see any heads turn as healers and other medics were rushing patients in and out of the tents.
I ducked out to the tent looking over the huge area filled with wounded soldiers or people trying to put out fires.
We had been attacked.
I kept my eyes peeled for my son, he had gone to the thick of the battle zone to get any survivors while I was trying to find Priam.
I felt eyes on me, I turned to see Morgan. The young boy sprinting my way with someone in his arms.
"He wasn't on the west side. Sorry it took me so long to get back, I had to get Severa." My heart dropped as I saw him covered in fresh blood the boy seemed unfazed as always as he reported.
He looked down at the blonde girl in his arms. She was passed out and small wounds covered her. Her breathing was steady while her hands were clasped together to her chest she didn't look like she was bleeding either.
I felt a huge amount of relief go through me that my god daughter was okay. I nodded and let him through the tent knowing that Libra was working in there already with Cordelia. The boy shooting me a worried look.
"Nah is also out there right now so I'm going to have to go back and help her."
I felt a strong hand gently grab my wrist. I looked up to see Morgan's reassuring face.
"Mom we'll find dad. Don't worry." I gave him a weak smile as the boy grinned uncertainly. We both were worried.
I looked around frantically as I spotted Chrom. The man rushed over to me.
"Robin you okay? You ran off pretty suddenly once everything cleared." His huge hands rested on my shoulders while Fredrick followed behind the man giving me a concerned look while he still held a defensive look in his eyes. I nodded and looked around more.
"Yeah Morgan and I are fine but I can't find Priam! How about you? I made sure to tell Sumia and Cythia to stay in the skies. "
He looked me in the eyes and stated, "They are fine. Along with Lucina. Now calm down. I saw him three tents down with Sumia." I gave him a fleeting glance of thanks before I sprinted.
We had gotten attacked in our own camp. I had gotten separated from Priam during the battle. I should have kept a closer watch of the battle I should have stayed close to him.
These thoughts rushed through my head as everything was blurring at the corners of my vision. I gripped my side and hissed as ghost pains of being stuck in that tunnel with those Risen surfaced in my mind. I glanced down at where I had been stabbed through with that cursed blade. Flashes of that battle surfacing to my mind. I paused and took deep breaths. Why now?
I lightly rested a hand on my baby bump concern rushing through me.
I sprinted to the tent that Chrom had described. I felt my eyes widen.
It was the red triage tent.
Dread settled into my bones.
"Lords above please let him be okay." I prayed to the heavens.
I steeled my nerves as I charged into the tent.
It was a battle ground all in itself. I remain unwavering as I heard countless people shouting or crying. Crimson blood covering everyone in some way.
Priam.
I looked over and saw Lissa the young woman healing a soldier who had lost a leg.
"Lissa!" the small blonde turned to me.
I walked up to the girl only to have Lon' qu point his blade at me. I glared at him as Lissa yelled "Lon'qu, stop it. We are no longer under attack. You don't have to keep protecting me!"
The swordsman gave a dissatisfied frown and sheathed his blade. I felt his eyes on me like a hawk as I walked up to Lissa.
The girl took my hands her expression tired and weary. "I'm so sorry about him, he's a little tense that's all. Are you okay?" She instantly glanced down at my stomach as I nodded feeling like I was about to cry.
I drew the young woman into a hug as I clarified. "I can't find Priam." I looked over at Lon'qu to see his expression convey shock.
Lissa drew back from me, "What?"
"Chrom said he was in this tent, have you seen him?"
"No, I haven't. We also can't find Owain either. Owain was paired up with Inigo, and Gerome. So if you see him could you please come find me? I have patients to get back to and I can't look for him myself." She looked like on the verge of crying too.
My heart broke as I thought of what this would be like if I couldn't find Morgan instead of Priam. She let go of my hands and staff in hand got lost in the sea of anguish.
"I hope you find him." Lon'qu gave me a stern fleeting glance and went into the fray to follow his wife.
I ran my hand through my now short curly hair and felt my breathing start to quicken.
But what if Priam was dead? I covered my slightly swollen stomach with my hands.
How would I raise Morgan without his father? I couldn't do it alone. Flash backs of nightmares lingered in my head as I thought back after Priam was in my life, how I suffered from silence and nightmares, the once ugly scars covering my body that somehow only Priam found as a symbol of strength. I needed him like air. He was the one person that I just wanted to see right now.
Now's not the time Robin, Priam needs you, Morgan needs you. I placed a protective hand around my stomach. Both Morgan's needed you.
I steeled my resolve and continued my way through the crowd.
I must have been there for only a few minutes but it felt like days. I stopped many times due to a hand reaching out to grasp a part of my outfit or a solider giving me a defeated look.
I sighed and grabbed a class change seal that I had on me at all times. I quickly set the thing to a cleric and felt my outfit change the magic in the orb causing my body to change with magic as well. The bright light was unnoticed as I felt my cleric uniform materialize around me. I put my sword away and grabbed the nearest staff I could.
I searched more for the familiar blue hair and height of my husband as I healed minor injuries and comforted certain soldiers.
I felt hollow as I jumped from one warrior to another each one leaving me empty.
I looked down at the limp hand in mine. I felt numb as I stared into eyes that were just filled with life not seconds ago. The young blonde haired slider wearing a peaceful smile on his face.
I got up and closed his eyes while placing his hands peacefully over him.
Cries from the younger soldiers could be heard in a certain corner of the tent. I felt sick as I continued.
I had to find Priam.
My chest felt tight as I spotted someone with blue hair. I held my breath as I instantly started to sprint towards the familiar color.
Please let me not be too late.
The blue haired hero had turned his head half his face bandaged up his eyes were frantic. "You don't get it, I have to go to my wife and son!"
"Sir, calm down your injuries are too extensive." The strong girl yelled back her arms locking him into place.
His expression changed to pure relief as I made eye contact with him the nurse gave a confused look and glanced my way as I charged at the man. I shoved past a few people as I ran and jumped into his arms the man catching me as I hugged him.
I felt tears stain my face. I felt like I could breathe again.
"I thought you were dead!" I sobbed into his shoulder. The man's hold on me tightened as his head rested against my shoulder. His huge hand gripped my small body as I clung to his so tightly I thought my body was going to break.
"I'm fine Robin."
I cried harder and clung to the huge hero. I felt like he was the only thing keeping me grounded at the moment. I wasn't entirely sure I could have physically gotten closer to him as we both clung to each other with as much strength as we could.
He ran his hand through my hair the man clinging to me so tightly.
He connected his for head to mine and ran his thumb under my eyes.
A panicked look crossed his face "Where's Morgan? How about you? Is the baby okay?" He glanced down at my stomach I gently cupped his face as I answered.
"He came straight to me, he's perfectly fine. Not a single scratch on him. I'm also fine. Chrom, Fredrick, and Gauis were with me the entire time. So there was no way I would have gotten a single bruise more or less scratch on me."
I instantly saw Priam fully relax.
I got up and taking the mend staff in my hands I started to say the enchantment that would start healing my husband.
I closed my eyes and started the long process. I felt a huge hand wrap around my waist. I kept my concentration as Priam's huge bandaged arm held me close to him.
