Toshioka Kiri: It’s the middle of the night when Kiri finally visits Stonegit.
She and Dagger had flown all day; they had returned to the fortress late, long after the evening meal and unseen by anyone save for a few guards. 
She’s donned a long dark embroidered robe with a hood, and she flits easily in the shadows, slipping into the room.  The young man lays there, prone, unmoving.
She conjures a tea tray and approaches him.
"So I guess that was too late, huh," she murmurs, setting the tea tray down at Stonegit’s bedside.  She tilts her head curiously.  "But you’re still alive… which means your soul is still connected to your body, however distant."
Kiri tentatively reaches a palm out, letting it hover over Stonegit’s chest.  Her hand glows a gentle blue, and she feels for the connection that she knows must lead to the bodyguard’s soul.  It’s been claimed by something, that she can tell, so she does what little she can without overtly trespassing.
She gives it a gentle nudge.
"That’s about all I can really do for you now," she sighs, withdrawing her hand.  The glow vanishes, and she stands.  "Minds are beyond my capability.  Just know that there are still people in this Rebellion who care for you.  They’d be awfully sad if you were gone."
She pauses for a moment and conjures some more tea leaves on the tray.  For health, nutrition, and pain relief.
"You know why I wanted to help you?" she comments after a moment.  "Your fall to madness… it reminded me of Lillith in the days before she became a witch.  Her soul was corrupted and rotting… and I thought the same might be true for you.  You weren’t a bad person before the King’s death.  You hadn’t made a contract, but… souls are fickle things.  Injuries and hurts on the soul are the hardest to overcome.  Harder still when someone else has a claim on it."
Kiri frowns as the image of her soul briefly comes to mind.  It must be clouded by now.  She’ll have to cleanse it again.
"Whatever deal it is that’s going on now - demons, gods, Hel, whatever - matters I know little of," she shakes her head, "I suppose all I can do is wish you luck.  Just remember that you still have others waiting for you in this realm of Midgard.  Don’t let them down, okay?"
She smiles and steps away.  Then she gives a respectful bow.
"Take care, Stonegit.  I don’t know when, or if you’ll wake, but… just in case… be at peace.  I’ll see you in the next life."
With that, leaving the tea by the bedside, Kiri turns and withdraws from the room, slipping back into the shadows once more.
