Gritting his teeth, he forced himself to put one foot in front of the other, each step feeling like a thousand needles.

The half-elf’s smirk widened, his eyes dancing with playful light.
Guess I'm special then,he replied. The man's firm grip felt unexpectedly reassuring to him.

I think I still got a few steps in me,he said, his voice strained.
