Yuki managed to stagger back to his room with some help. He heard someone say that they were going to send for a priest to come check on him and that was the last he heard before he saw everything go blurry in a giant swirl and felt the room go out from under him. He gulped hastily and hoped whoever it was got here soon.
... His head seriously smarted. Ow.

Dorra slowly climbed the steps and entered the boy's room, blinking down at the Teolli before moving to kneel by him. "Can you speak?" she asked softly, trying to determine if the boy was awake.

Yuki garbled something, wincing as he did so. "Make the room stop spinning," he said under his breath, mangling the words as he did. Hopefully whoever it was could make his head stop feeling like it got cracked open. At least he was lying down... well, he was pretty sure he was lying down, right?

Carefully, the girl put her hands against his head. Yeah, there was the problem all right. She concentrated, praying softly to her deity as she used a stronger healing spell on the boy. Better safe than sorry and she generally didn't need her healing spells right away.

Yuki winced as he felt a light pressure against the sides of his head. Then everything slowly started to settle. He blinked as everything went back to how they were suppose to and the ground came up under him to support his weight once again. He could still feel a lingering pain, however. "... What'd you do?" he asked, curious. He paused, then asked another question he was a bit afraid to ask. "Was my skull broken open?" he whispered timidly.

Dorra smiled. "Just a medium healing spell. It wasn't that major of a wound so I figured that'd be enough extra magic just in case there was something wrong I couldn't see." the Sooeteu explained. "And naaaah, I don't think your skull was seriously broken open - you'd probably have been bleeding much harder had it actually split, and most likely wouldn't have made it this far. You took a pretty damn strong wallop but it wasn't as bad as it could have been. You'll have at the very least a nasty bruise up there and probably a huge bump for a while."
Thinking on that, the girl nodded. "I'd suggest keeping ice on your head, resting frequently and no more TG battles for a bit. Take it easy for at least three days after the bump goes away, don't do anything strenuous, and rest. S'about all you can do at this point."

Yuki mentally clawed through some rather muggy recollections and came up with, "I think I had help getting this far..." The the rest of what she said sank in. "Well, the room has stopped spinning," he said doubtfully, hoping this was a good sign in her books. He reached up then froze, not sure he should be touching that just yet. "Bump and bruise?" Maybe the housekeeper would lend him something for his head? Then his eyes snapped wide open (much to his regret - that started his head hurting again). "No more battles for a bit? But I need to train!" He struggled to try and get to his feet, but flopped down into an awkward sitting arrangement as the room started to shift again. "Ugh... maybe so," he grumbled as he waited for the room to stop spinning once more. "Only three days?" He pleaded, hoping he could get moving after that. He really couldn't afford to wait around for so long!

"Three days AFTER the bump goes down and I don't know how long that will take." the girl pointed out, "Training is important but injuries are part of the job and just a natural setback you have to deal with. However, if you don't want to fall out of shape while you're recuperating, I would suggest doing small things like walks and stretches provided it doesn't make you too dizzy." Dorra told the other calmly, "Anyway, even if someone did help you back here, you were still conscious when I arrived so I still think it wasn't too bad. And if the room stopped spinning that's a good sign though I still say don't try anything."
Standing she smiled. "I'll go talk to the housekeeper about an icepack for you."

"Erm, okay," Yuki mumbled. "I'll be right here." And he would. He still didn't feel up to going anywhere at the moment. But... three days after the bump goes down?! He carefully felt for the bump, wincing when he found it. Ow. This might take awhile...

After a bit, the Sooeteu returned. In her hands she carried a large bundle of ice, wrapped up in a cloth, which she placed against the bump on his head. "There we go. That'll be uncomfortable after a bit but it'll help the swelling go down and help that to heal faster." she explained, adjusting the boy's pillows so he could lay there and not have to hold it. "If you really need, I'll bring you things to amuse yourself with while you're in here."

Yuki winced at the sensation and felt for the ice pack. That was cold. He sighed when he heard the news. "I don't think I can focus at the moment, so I might as well sleep for a while..." He clicked his beak as he tried to think. "And maybe study after I wake up." Might as well do something productive.

"All right. Sounds like a plan to me." the girl assured him with a light pat on his arm. "I'll get out of here and let you sleep then."

"Alright then," Yuki murmured, suddenly feeling very sleepy. "Unless you need me to show you out, I think I'll just fall asleep no-" There was a moment of silence before he started to snore softly in a rather odd pattern and pitch. Clearly he was already asleep.

Dorra just shook her head, leaving the room.
