When Judith did not return to the camp when she was due a small group of her fellow Light Elves grew worried. Archers were indeed hard to come by and it was especially hard to find one as good as Judith. Other than archery she was also one of the few who had studied some medicine and could recognize the differences between a potentially fatal plant and one that could save a life. Brishen, the Light Elf who ran the camp with Judith and also her younger brother, sent out a group of three men to search for her. He even hoped that she would return, though they did have their differences and did not get along well he knew that she would be a great lose for the camp.

Judith had not bothered with the second Dark Elf, she had bled for too long and had bled too much. If she delayed herself from returning to the camp further she would certainly not make it, hell she wondered if she could even make it without delays. It wasn't as if she could fight again either, if she even tried to kill this Dark Elf she knew that it would end with her own demise. It was better to be thankful that he showed no interest in her, if he wished to he could easily capture her, nurse her back to health and then... Well do whatever he pleased really. It didn't take much thinking to know what another was capable of, so she quickly pushed that thought away knowing that it would only uncover bad memories.

It felt as if she was almost done, she was almost within reach of the camp but when Judith looked around desperately trying to find it she found nothing but trees that stood tall around her. An involuntary whimper escaped from her when she realized she may have been going the wrong way, it was a very real possibility. After all she had lost a lot of blood and was beyond exhausted from the struggle, it was easy for one to become easily confused. Before she could take another step she fell to her knees then her body crashed against the soil below her. She could not walk anymore, she felt ill and knew that she would be near death within less than an hour. All she could do was lay still upon the ground trying not to allow her eyes to close for too long, but once they closed they remained closed and she fell asleep.

Kane was the first to spot her, a very tall and slender young mage, he began to run towards Judith and once beside her he crouched to feel for a pulse. Then the two others ran towards her, when they finally stood beside Kane he announced that she still had a pulse. He moved Judith making her lay straight on her back, but when he tried to lift her one of the other Light Elf's, Uldric, placed a hand on his shoulder and forced him to move away. "I'll carry her," he said then took Judith into his arms. "I don't think that we have time for you to play hero." He said, then him and the other Light Elf laughed. Kane kept his mouth shut not sure of what to say to such a comment, then when the other two began to leave he stood and followed silently.
