She flinched as he brushed strands of hair away from her face. "I'm sorry," she felt the compulsive need to apologize for her behaviour. Judith had been told that showing that she was weak in front of her enemy was dangerous. Though she didn't consider Rhyldrin an enemy, he had been kind to her in his own way. She knew that if she told her brother that he would be disgusted. Though it was not as if their relationship was already in ruins. Her brother probably didn't trust her and discovering that she had vanished probably upset him even more. She sniffed a bit, her noise was almost as sore as her eyes now. "You must think that I'm not worth saving if I'm like this." she muttered to herself quietly.

Judith breathed out heavily as he laid her on the ground again. She wondered if he really would be back or if he would leave her there to die. It almost seemed impossible for her to get out of here without being spotted and stirring up trouble. She wondered what Rhyldrin was going to do and if he could not do anything then she would have to live her last few days here slowly dying. It was comforting to know that he was at least going to try to save her. She listened closely to his conversation with the guard. Judith had not known that Rhyldrin could tell others what to do. She wondered how much power he had and how dangerous he really was.

When her cell door opened and he came back in, her heart fluttered in her chest. When he touched her gently she felt as if everything would some how be alright now. She felt safe as he held her in his arms, but was afraid of what the other Dark Elves would say. She was more afraid of what they would do to Rhyldrin if they learned that he was helping her rather then wanting to harm her. She brought a hand to his chest and gripped his shirt tightly. Judith closed her eyes once they left the cells, she didn't want to look at the other Dark Elves. Though she felt eyes on her and she heard them whispering.

She opened her eyes when Rhyldrin has reached what seemed to be a home. When she was placed on a bed she sunk in to the mattress, surrounded by comfort that she had not had for what seemed like forever. Her eyes looked at him, for the first time in weeks she smile warmly. "Thank you," she said to him. Judith was trying her hardest not to cry. She wasn't as scared anymore, she wanted to cry because she really did appreciate what he had done for her.

Her eyes fluttered closed, her exhaustion was overwhelming. The warmth of the bed was incredible. "I'm going to sleep," she said, she was mumbling now too tired to speak anymore. "I hope that you don't mind." Judith's body relaxed and shortly after speaking she fell in to a deep sleep.
