Kalli gasped as she saw the man fall to his knees and then pass out. She ran back to her hut, no more than a few feet away, and grabbed a bowl and a soft cloth. She then went to the lake and got some fresh water, tasting it a little herself before she decided it would be okay for him to drink. Her brown eyes were huge with surprise, and her long dark hair had come loose from its pins by the time she got back to the man, her hair flowing behind her in all its dark glory. The tunic she wore was a dark green velvet one that brought out the tiny glints of green in her dark eyes, though her feet, in her haste, were still bare.
"Come on..." Kalli whispered, bathing his neck. "Come on... wake up." She didn't have the strength to move him so that his face was towards her, or she would have. No one had died in the forest while she was on watch yet, and she wasn't about to have it happen now. She would throw the water on him if she had to. She tried again to roll him over, and though she sweated and heaved,couldn't. Frustrated, Kalli yanked the back of his shirt so the part his head went through was open and poured the water down it. If that didn't wake him up, nothing probably would! Then she immediately felt stupid for using all the water and ran quickly to the lake for some more. By the gods, she wished she had the ability to teleport right now!
Kalli, usually so lithe and in shape, was exhausted by the time she returned. But even though her chest was heaving, she refused to drink any water herself. Not until she saw if the man was all right. His horse, munching on some grass nearby, seemed almost too blissful to care about her owner's mishap.
