As he carried her back to the house he looked out across the vast expanse of forest that could be seen from the opening of his cave. "Just tell them a wayward elf helped you. For all you knew, I was one until ..well you know. Forest elves still live around here albeit they're few and far between, but I could have just been at the right time at the right place." he said. He got her back onto the bed and covered her up. "Get some sleep. I'll feed you breakfast tomorrow and then I'll take you back home." he said and then slid a stray hair behind her ear and moved back outside.

He would grab her clothing and wash them in a bucket of water he pulled from the hot spring. He got the dirt and most of the blood from the garments. He hung them to dry and as she slept he mended them once they were. All the tears and small holes caused by falling were now repaired and they looked almost brand new. He folded them up, then wrapped them in a bolt of fabric with some lavender flowers. When she went to go put them on the next morning they would have a faint smell of lavender on them.
