[Technically Lucian could heal himself with his blood magic, but... well, with a wound this severe, considering how blood magic sucked life out of him, he imagined it would do more harm than good. So, instead, he found his way to Anders, prepared for a good amount of berating as he clutched the still-bleeding wound in his side. He pounded against the door, struggling to breath.] /Anders/. ~ kirkwallbirdofprey
Anders barely avoided knocking the ink pot over when something slammed against his door, quill jerking from the glass and leaving a fresh splatter of black across his ink-stained desk. He dropped the quill against the roughly drafted manuscript he’d started, yanking his quilted outer robe from the back of his chair as he stood.
The moment he heard Lucian’s voice, however, he dropped the robe, all pretenses of getting fully dressed before answering the visitor forgotten. He raced over to the heavy wooden door, yanking the bolts back with trembling fingers and swinging the door inwards.
He sucked in a sharp breath at the sight of the Champion in obvious distress, blood dripping down his side. A part of him was frightened by the prospect that someone had bested Lucian, or at least gotten close enough to harm him, but the rest of him was thankfully lucid enough to click over into healer mode. He reached for the other man and steadied him, ushering him into the clinic and slamming the door shut behind him.
"On the table, now," he commanded, helping the other mage over to the nearest examination table. He helped him up onto it, only pausing long enough to cast a fire spell in the nearest lantern to give him enough light to work with.
"What happened?" The question was simple, but his tone commanded an answer more than it requested. An unspoken threat seemed to thrum against the underside his words. Tell me who harmed you so I might kill them myself.
He worked to uncover the wound, undoing and pulling fabric away so he might access it fully. Healing magic prickled at the tips of his fingers, setting his hands aglow and spreading until he could place his palms over the wound and seal it.
