That coaxes a more genuine smile from Anders. "Thank you, Ilska. It's good to know he's out there, safe, at least."

"From what I saw of Raeli and...Defiance? Was it? They'll be just fine."

"Yes. And now, we heal as many people as we can until the Templars make their way down here."

Ilska steps back to the door.

Cia nods, and will turn eir attention immediately back to their patients. Better to have as many of them out of here as possible.

Anders heads to the bedroom to pull his Grey Warden robes on, and stashes his staff and notes for what he hoped would be his manifesto. 

He then joins Cia in healing patients. "I wish i'd thought to make you both up some robes as well," he says to her.

"We'll be fine," Cia promises quietly. "We're pretty good at getting past Templars."

"I wish you didn't have to be," Anders says, pausing mid-heal to hug Cia one-armed.

Ey leans into him. "It's better now, even if we still need to hide sometimes."

"I promise, you'll always have a home. Even if it is just this dingy clinic."

"It's a pretty good home," Cia says decisively. "It's got...feeling."

"I like that. It's certainly got that."

Outside, in Ilska's view, a person in a hooded cloak settles by the stairs leading back into the main 'room' of Darktown.

She narrows her eyes, and keeps a careful eye on them, along with everything else.

Another figure appears, this time an elf, and they sit a little closer to the clinic.

-This makes her a little uncomfortable, but two is still just a coincidence.

Far off in the distance, there's some shouts and the clank of armour.

Both the hooded figure and the elf don't move.

Ilska keeps watching them.

The Templars appear near the stairs, and start going through the homes there, while others interrogate residents. 

"Anders," she says lowly over her shoulder.

Cia stops casting, and starts running things Anders will need around the clinic.

The elf stands, and walks to the hooded figure. They exchange a few words, then switch places. The hooded figure walks towards the Templars.

"Halt!" The Templars yell, and then the sound of a chase gives out.

-What the-

Ilska keeps watching, until she's sure the Templars aren't coming back.
