Chapter 6 Dragonspine
Fischl's POV
The Next Day
I had arrived at the Adventure Guild's reception desk.
When I did…I saw one of Bennet's fathers talking to Kathrine…and he seemed very panicked.
"Are you alright, one of the fathers of my suitor", I asked in concern when I walked to him. "There appears to be something that is troubling you."
"Fischl", Bennet's father started. "Have you seen Bennet?"
"No", I replied, worry beginning to set in. "Is there trouble?"
"Well", Bennet's father started. "He went to Dragonspine to do a commission, but he hasn't returned yet, so me and the rest of his dads are getting worried."
After Bennet's father said this, my heart began to fill with dread.
Has something happened to Bennet?
"Fischl", Bennet's father started, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Could you please go to Dragonspine and try to find Bennet?"
After Bennet's father asked this, I composed myself before continuing to speak.
"Fear not, one of the fathers of my suitor", I reassured. "I, the Prinzessin der Verurteilung, will go and seek out your son, and ensure his safe return."
"She means that she will go and find him", Oz clarified.
"Oh", Bennet's father started as he grabbed onto my hands. "Thank you so much, Fischl! Please, bring our boy back to us safely."
…
I was on Dragonspine, wearing the proper clothing to protect myself from the cold.
"Oz", I started. "Fly ahead, and use your eyes to seek the boy out!"
With that, Oz flew away as he began looking for Bennet.
Sometime later, he flew back down to me.
"I have found him, Mein Fräulein", he revealed. "However, he is injured, and does not appear to be in good shape!"
"Lead me to him Oz", I commanded.
Then, Oz led me to where Bennet was, and when I spotted him…my heart stopped in my chest.
He was lying face down in the snow. He wasn't moving.
"Bennet", I yelled before rushing up to him.
I kneeled down beside him before turning him around.
When I did so…I noticed that he had scratches all over his body!
"Bennet", I yelled. "Bennet! Wake up Bennet!"
But he didn't respond.
"Oz", I started. "Fly back to Mondstadt and get help!"
"What about you, Mein Fräulein", Oz asked.
"I'll try to get him to shelter", I replied. "Hurry Oz!"
…
I managed to get Bennet into a cave.
I made a fire and placed Bennet near it to keep him warm. I also put my coat over him.
"Fischl", I heard a weak voice say.
I looked down…and saw that Bennet had opened his eyes!
"Bennet", I exclaimed.
"Where are we", Bennet asked weakly.
"In a cave on Dragonspine", I replied. "Don't worry. Oz went to get help and he should be back soon. Just hang in there, okay?"
After I said this…Bennet slowly reached out his hand…which I took in mine.
"It'll be okay, Bennet", I reassured. "You'll be okay."
