It broke the girl's heart seeing the poor slave who wanted to help people like them despite her master's best wishes, but barely able to stand. How anyone could do this to such a young child she would never know...

She nodded at Fey. "Aye. Though we can at least hope that there's some sort of course of action."

She gasped at the mention of experiments being done on the poor thing... she vowed then and there that she'd win this war even if it meant giving up her life to save this poor child and many others like her.

Working out the worst of the knots she tried to sooth the girl back into slumber,s he needed it to heal herself. "We can only hope, and maybe delicately point them on the right path."

"Indeed... I would gladly give up my own life to save children like her... They don't deserve this."

*She smiled lightly, ears just drooped forward as she blinked tilting her head to one side with a small shy smile* But master did teach me stuffs.. and he did save me from.. worse.. he is usually kind... and..and he taught me the basics of.. m.magic...

Stroking her hair Fey smiled, "And indeed that is more than most would do, but you have the right to decide what it is you want, without someone to tell you what it is you shall do. And when we win this war that choice will be yours."

The girl nodded. "At least he gave you that much... but you still deserve the chance to make your own decisions and to just be... well, a child..."

*The girl just tilted her head confused, frowning as she blinked her tail floofing out as she then squirmed hugging lightly to her tail* M..mrr...?

She sighed. "Let me put it this way... you don't deserve to live the life of a slave, and when we win this war, you won't have to any longer." she said with a smile.

"It's okay, we know that you've no idea that life can be different than it has been. You'll see, freedom is both a burden and a gift. For now, rest, you've done your part, I'll help and watch for those that come in."

*Her jade eyes frowned in confusion gazing away from them and to the floor, squeaking lightly as she shook heavier, her tail fluffing out* But..but.. I am my master's...

"For now, yes." her eyes were sad and deep. "But one day you will be your own master, and that will be even more fulfilling than you could imagine."

The girl nodded at what Fey said. "She speaks the truth, but for now... just rest..."

*She just nodded as she drifted back to sleep, frowning slightly but it quickly relaxed off her face, the small, pale child just curled up into a tightknit ball*

Demagische couldn't help but sigh. "It's sad that she doesn't know any better that what she knows now..."

"But it is all she's known, and that will not change unless we win," she looked up as a small creature ran into the room and paused by her. Takin the note it held she sighed. "I'm afraid duty calls, keep her safe for now and I will have your back in battle when next we meet." Fey shifted the drowsy child to Dem's lap and stood to leave. "Blessed be, and fight well."
[off to sleep, have a good night!]

*she squirmed, murmuring groggily as she was passed over, just blinking up into Dema's eyes as she smiled broadly, groggy and just gave her a light, sleepy hug*
