Ava had snuck into the Tekiel keep without being detected and had easily retrieved the necessary herb she had been lacking. She had then returned to Kol, cleaned his wound and fixed his hurts and infection before stitching it back up and binding his midriff with a clean strip of silk.

She now studied the wound, tapping her chin thoughtfully. It was a few days after their quick escape from her shop and to the Tekiel keep. The wound was pink but the stitches had been taken out once she was sure they were no longer needed. It was a little redder than she might have liked, but she knew that it wouldn't infect again with her ointment on it. Ava looked up at Kol's face. "I think we can move on now. You are likely safe from infection. How much does it hurt?"

Kol shrugged, as if it didn't matter. He'd definitely had worse, but there was still a strain in his eyes whenever he shifted. "I'm fine. We should leave tonight. The longer we stay here, the higher the chances of discovery."

Ava nodded, beginning to gather her things. "Where are we going to go? I don't know if it's safe for me to go back to my shop." She paused, looking at a jar full of a milky liquid. "Here, drink a sip of this. It'll help the pain."

He screwed the lid back on and handed it back before pushing himself to his feet, using a nearby stall for support.

"Lean on this. Where are we going to go?" she repeated.

"I have a few places we could go, but they're not exactly a place for a girl like you."

"Would it be best if we left Luthadel? I mean, how intent on finding you are these friends of yours?"

Kol grimaced. She made a good point, but... leave Luthadel? This was his home. There were people here he cared about, whether he would admit it to anyone else or not. "I don't know," he said. "But I would prefer not to leave."

"So.... I suppose we could go deep in the Underground."

"Disappear," Kol murmured. "We'd have to disguise ourselves." He paused for a moment, then said, "Well, me. I don't think anyone would think twice about you, though we might want to make you look less pretty. Pretty girls don't survive long in the Underground."

"If somebody tried to touch me, they would find a coin through their head," she said. "I'm confident I can defend myself. I'm not worrie about that."

Kol raised his eyebrows. "Alright, then. Don't say I didn't warn you. These guys will just see you as a piece of meat." He paused and frowned. She was mistborn, after all. "Just try not to kill anyone, okay? I don't need anymore enemies."

He grimaced as he started walking, but the wound really didn't hurt that bad anymore. She'd done a good job.

She walked a ways, slowly.
