Mei Ling: offers a cup of tea I-I’m so sorry this happened. Here, drink some tea. It’ll help, maybe.
grunts in pain I appreciate it, Mei Ling. Let's take it slow.
starts guiding Lessocra slowly, taking small steps We're going to make it, Lessocra. Just a little further. Stay strong for me.
slowly following Mei Ling's lead I'm trying, Mei Ling. But I'm getting really tired. Can we stop soon?
suddenly stops and turns to Lessocra Lessocra, I have an idea! I know a secret path that leads to a nearby village. If we follow it, we might find help faster. Would you like to try it with me?
panting heavily A secret path? That sounds risky, Mei Ling. Are you sure it's safe?
nods confidently Don't worry, Lessocra! I've used this path before. It's a shortcut that only a few of us know about.
hesitates, then nods Alright, Mei Ling. Lead the way. I trust you.
grabs Lessocra's hand tightly, her eyes shining with determination Hold on tight, Lessocra! We're going to make it through this together.
grunts in pain Ah, Mei Ling, I can hardly keep my eyes open. How much further do we have to go?
As Mei Ling and Lessocra continue down the secret path, they are ambushed by a group of bandits hiding in the trees, ready to attack them.
grunts in surprise What the hell, Mei Ling? Bandits? I didn't expect this.
quickly analyzes the situation, her eyes darting around Lessocra, stay close to me! We need to defend ourselves.
whispers urgently Mei Ling, be careful. I can't fight like this.
quickly unsheathes her sword, holding it tightly Don't worry, Lessocra! I won't let anything happen to you. I'll protect you with everything I've got!
swallows hard I...I trust you, Mei Ling. Just stay safe.
takes a deep breath, her voice steady Lessocra, I need you to focus on getting to safety. I'll handle the bandits. Remember, we have to stay strong and work together.
grits teeth in pain Alright, Mei Ling. I'll try to stay out of trouble. Be careful.
raises her sword high, shouting with determination Show yourselves, you scoundrels! We're not afraid of you!
whispers in fear Mei Ling, I don't like the look of those knives. Be careful.
charges towards the bandits, swinging her sword fiercely Take this! And that! You won't get away with attacking us!
stumbles back, clutching her side Mei Ling... I can't keep up. Go, hurry...
determinedly swings her sword again, striking the bandit leader in the chest You heard Lessocra! Get out of here before it's too late!
grunts in pain Mei Ling... I can barely stand...
rushes over to Lessocra, supporting her weight Don't worry, Lessocra! I'll get you to safety. Just hold on tight.
gasping for breath Mei Ling...where do we go? The village...
looks around quickly, assessing the situation We can't go back to the village, Lessocra. The bandits will surely return.
grunts in pain Mei Ling...where then? I'm so tired...
pauses for a moment, thinking quickly Lessocra, there's an abandoned temple not far from here.
weakly nods A temple... maybe we can hide there.
tightens her grip on Lessocra, supporting her weight Yes, Lessocra! The temple will provide us with shelter and protection.
grunts in pain Okay, Mei Ling...lead the way. I trust you.
takes Lessocra's arm and starts moving briskly Stay close to me, Lessocra. We'll reach the temple soon. Just a little further.
grimacing in pain Mei Ling...you're amazing. I can't thank you enough...
smiles warmly Lessocra, you don't have to thank me. We're in this together, remember? Now, let's focus on getting to that temple.
groans in pain Mei Ling...the temple...I can manage a little more...
nods determinedly Alright, Lessocra! Let's push forward. We're almost there! Just a few more steps.
grunting in pain Mei Ling...you're right...a few more steps...
As Mei Ling and Lessocra finally reach the abandoned temple, they find it filled with traps and dangerous debris. Despite their injuries, they work together to clear a path and make the temple safe.
breathing heavily Mei Ling...this place...it's a nightmare...
surveying the area, her eyes narrowing Don't worry, Lessocra! We'll clean this place up and make it safe.
wincing in pain How are we going to do that, Mei Ling? We can barely stand...
determinedly Lessocra, we'll find a way! We won't let these traps stop us.
grunts in pain Mei Ling...you're right...we can't give up now...
quickly assesses the traps Okay, Lessocra! First, we need to avoid the falling debris.
grimaces in pain Mei Ling...what about the poisoned needles?
swiftly removes the poisoned needles from the ground Don't worry, Lessocra! I'll take care of it.
grins through the pain You're amazing, Mei Ling...I'm glad you're here...
smiling warmly Lessocra, I'm glad you think so too! Now, let's keep moving and clear a path to the main hall.
