:Hey: Shavri sends. :Just hold still, everything is fine, I need to have a look with my Sight.: Sera is not obviously dying at this exact moment but it's going to take her a moment to determine if she's leaking life-force. 

Sera cracks an eye open. ...It's bright. 

:Is it morning?: she thinks where Shavri can see it, not quite finding the energy to project proper Mindspeech. :Did anyone...?: 

:It's been ten– no, eleven days. You and - the other two Healers: whose names Shavri isn't sure she ever knew properly and which she's definitely forgotten by now, :you didn't make it through the night. Nayoki died a couple of days later. Yesterday we were able to get a Gate to Golarion, and we just brought you back. We're doing Leareth next, but - we wanted you to be there as a face he knows. How are you feeling?: 

:...Alive: Sera manages. It's - hard to wrap her mind around, that until just now, for ELEVEN DAYS, she - wasn't. 

Alive, and not imminently dying, but she definitely came back with some of the damage to Endurance, which had the by-now-predictable effect of reducing how much life-force she can hold onto, and...it's still leaking. 

:She'll need the spell for progressive damage: Shavri informs whoever is nearby enough to easily hit with Mindspeech. :Looks like the Raise didn't get rid of it. ...She'd probably do fine with just a lot of Lesser Restorations or just resting the normal way, I can't tell yet if any damage is stuck-in-place yet, if so it's not much and I think the progressive damage spell will get all of it.: 

"Remove Radioactivity," incants Raad.

Ohhhhhhhh that's better. Sera feels...okay? She's tired, she would love to lie down and sleep for the next twelve candlemarks, but she doesn't feel like she's right now injured or ill, just - a bit weak, the way you are after recovering from a grueling illness. 

She sits up - under the blankets she's still wearing the underclothes she remembers having on when she was last conscious - and spends a few seconds examining her own hands for any sign that they were recently corpse hands. 

Sera would benefit enough from a channel now that she can hold life-force better that it's worth making sure she's in the room next time they need one for any reason, but Shavri doesn't think it's urgent or worth a spell. 

"Do you have any questions about the last ten days?" she says aloud in Valdemaran, which she's pretty sure Sera speaks. "That you'd like answered before we go ahead and get Leareth." 

"Is he...?" 

Sera looks around and answers her question. That's Leareth. He is definitely not alive right now. She's having to tell herself very very firmly that this is fine and not upsetting because they just told her that they're bringing him back. 

It feels...wobbly, too uncertain to put her weight on, that - what - that someone else decided to step in and salvage the situation, and is rescuing them now of their own free will? It's not something she expected to happen. Raise Dead is a god miracle, right? That's - it still feels a bit dizzying, that there are gods in another world whose followers aren't set on murdering Leareth and sabotaging everything he does. 

It would be rude to try to debate that with the Valdemaran Healer, though. 

"Who did the Gate?" she asks. "I - ten days is faster that -" 

"Brightstar, of all people. He got an apology from the Star-Eyed Goddess and decided to - try to set right some of what he did." 

"Oh." She says it in a very small voice. 

"It's going to be okay," Shavri says, quietly. "We have fourteen clerics here," a glance back at Ovada, "and your organization is doing an incredible job of sourcing diamonds. We're going to get a lot of people back. You're just one of the first. - we got Herald Vanyel's Companion yesterday, they had one casting available." 

Though not even close to all of Valdemar's casualties. Valdemar can't afford it and there are better ways to spend what little they have to spare. And Iftel, of course - she doesn't even know what will happen there. 

Sera nods. 

"I - think that's probably all I need to know, for right now?" She spotted Mage-commander Ovada across the room. If Leareth has strategy questions, she's not the right person to answer those anyway. She's pretty sure her main role here is to be familiar enough that he doesn't TRY TO GATE SOMEWHERE RANDOM again. "...Er, he's going to be coming back with the same problem I - just had, that the healing magic fixed?" 

"We assume so. We're not sure if he'll be worse off than you, but he's certainly not going to be better off." 

Nod. "Do I have time to, er, get dressed? I, do you have, could I maybe borrow -?" She does not want Leareth to wake up to her hovering at his bedside in her underclothes. 

"Yes, of course. I'll bring you something to wear." 

:She'd like a minute to get properly dressed: she sends to Khayr. :And I'll want to go grab Vanyel for Raising Leareth after this, anyway.: 

They leave the room to let her dress.

Vanyel has (only a little grudgingly) taken a break from inhaling soup to get properly dressed in his Heralds' Whites and then join them outside the room. ...With Yfandes. Because he's not really in the mood right now to break physical contact with her at any point in the next week, and there should be plenty of room. 

Sera calls out that she's ready. She's wearing a spare set of green Healers' robes, which feels odd - Leareth's Healers don't wear uniforms at all unless it's, like, an active combat zone and they need to be immediately recognizable - and she's smoothed down and tied back her hair and gulped a cup of water and then splashed some on her face and she feels a lot more like herself. 

Mage-commander Ovada will await the inevitable lecture with dignity. 

Khayr does the Raise.

Raad is ready with the Remove Radiation right away when that completes.

Oh no he looks - worse - than how she woke up. A lot worse. 

Raad already knows they need it and it's going to be done in six seconds and so there's not actually any point in yelling at anyone in Mindspeech that something is really seriously wrong. 

The mysterious progressive-damage-fixing spell does, at least, stop the life-force leak, which is GOOD because he does NOT HAVE VERY MUCH right now. On top of all the diffuse wrongness and the sheer dimness of his life force, she's pretty sure he still has a lot of the invisible-to-the-naked-eye injurylike damage that a channel or a Cure should fix - and thus should really have been fixed by Raising him - just because the...whatever the underlying relationship there is between the thing that a Restoration aimed at Endurance fixes and the amount a person can benefit from channels and Cures at all...whatever the deal is with that, he is. Well. He has enough of the thing to be alive at all, which is what they said would happen, but he has, Shavri thinks, literally the exact bare minimum to be alive and no more than that - 

- is the spell even going to help -
