Opens her eyes, looking down at her hands. The cup laying broken at her feet. She looks up at Chell with a smile. "Sorry, hope I didn't scare you." Her hands do not appear to cut at all. "I forget my strength sometimes. This happens a lot. I'll get the broom and mop and get this mess cleaned up before someone gets hurt."
She leaves the room and returns with the broom and mop in hand. "You should of seen the messes I made when I first got my wings." Laughing. "Once I cleaned off both tables of everything. Then there was the time I climbed up to reach the flour and ended up covered in flour and the kitchen was a mess. Trying to sit a chair was the worst. I would knock it over with my wings as I was sitting down and fall on my back. You know how hard it is to get up off your back with new wings?" Laughing as she remembers the many accidents and blunders along the path she had chosen to walk. "Henrik came up with a wonderful idea on how I keep riding my horse. He would tie me to the saddle so my wings wouldn't drag me off the horse." She looks at the main doors a sadness fills her eyes. "I hope he's going to be alright. So many troubles we face in this land right now."

Near the infirmary there is a crackle of magical energy. With a crack of light Elvewyn appears, after a few days of absence, and retakes his position by the column facing the Infirmary. He offers a nod to the Alizarin Mages present. His hood is down and he is beginning to show signs of fatigue and tiredness, the kind that only come from intense concentration.

*Would look at her emphatically... Sighing as she left, and laughing with her to her tales of winged havoc. As she looks at the door and finishes speaking...* "Hey... It is Henrik... *Would gently place his hand on her shoulder, as he speaks reassuringly* ... They don't call him Saint for nothing... *Would smile and give her a convincing look that everything is going to be alright* ... Some of the most hostile places in Cormyr... Me and him... Without a scratch!"
*Then he would take adequate tools to help her clean up the mess, as he would vividly talk about some of their adventures...*

Two days later, the doors of the House swing open and Henrik reappears. He's tired, filthy, stinking of earth and with a few holes in his uniform but in one piece. It seems he has been giving the remains of undead a proper burial as well as tending to wounded.
The supplies-laden healer surveys the House, nodding to himself and greets the Purples, Alizarin mages and his fellow clergy with a smile.
"You smell terrible, brother!" A sister remarks.
He catches his own scent and wrinkles his nose "Ugh,so I do. Should I have a bath first? No, I'll see Lynn first.." he debates the decision all the way to the clerical door and beyond.

Lynn would be seen moments later gathering hot water, soap, and shampoo. "Henrik will be resting before he attends to his normal duties. The poor man is exhausted. Not to mention in need of a long hot bath."

*After putting kitchen in order, Chell would tidy around the temple, making sure not to bother the patients. After that he would ask around with the staff what else needs to be done. If roof needs a bit of his fine touch, he would go up and work on it too... After finishing, he would return to his temple duties, whistling happily, feeling lighthearted."

Dylan enters the House of Healing, asking for Henrik… The slightly orcish-featured, yet handsome young warrior looks a bit worn out, his golden-amber gaze a particular melancholy about it. With him is a grief-stricken looking girl in her early teens, her wide green eyes watery and worn out from what looks to have been days of crying. Beneath a winter blanket that has been draped over her shoulders, she is dressed in a raggedy commoner's outfit, torn in places, and has a number of recently healed, minor scratches and cuts across her hands and face, likely from passing through a considerably thorny bramble. In her arms she holds a fresh bundle of flowers tightly, as if they are a security-blanket. Dylan explains that her name is Hanna and that she was orphaned by a Malarite attack on her family’s homestead in the Hullack… an attack she managed to escape from with her life and could use a comforting place to rest and recover. Defunct Fiddlesticks Hanna, arriving at the House of Healing.

In her arms she holds a fresh bundle of flowers tightly, as if they are a security-blanket... Across the shrine, Henrik spots the pair and picks up on the girl's sadness before he has been introduced to her "Please, come in...you are most welcome here" Listening as Dylan explains, his expression increases to grow grave yet he speaks comfortingly "You may stay here as long as you wish, Hanna...I know how frightened you must feel at this moment but be assured, we will look after you and you will always have a place to stay here. I would like to know, do you have family elsewhere in Cormyr that we can contact?" After hearing her response; he would take Dylan to one side and ask if the girl's deceased family have been attended to, regardless of the reply he would make preparations for Hanna to stay in the House and find her a space to eat, rest and sleep.

Hanna walks in, shivering. When asked about other family she just shakes her head shyly, a tear rolling down her left cheek. Dylan explains that she said her family are refugees from the Sembian Civil War, though she was born in Cormyr. She shared that she may have some relatives in Sembia who survived the war... but if so, she has never met them.
After moving aside with Henrik, Dylan shares that he investigated the site of the attack and buried her family, further recounting a summary of the tale when time and space permits (see Triadic Order Unproven: Dylan's Unproven Trials, "Trial of Tyr").

Dylan spends the night at the House of Healing... the young man helping serve dinner to the House's residents and hungry common-folk before eating a hefty bowl himself, after which he meets with Henrik to speak about something seemingly important to him, leaving a sealed envelope with the esteemed priest... then calls it an early night. Before dawn he awakens... the rest of the House still, but for the soothing hush of the small fountain at its side. After rinsing his face, Dylan finds his way to the alter, of which he sits in prayer at until dawn. Before leaving, Dylan gathers his pack, in which he takes out a sizable emerald that glimmers with a seemingly-magical prism of colors... such as if playful spirits fluttered about within it. At its sight he smiles softly, a quality of deep-love showing through his golden-amber gaze. As he reflects on the beautiful artifact, he softly hums an endearing tune in Mulhorandi, as if to lull a child into rest... after which he carefully stows away the mysterious gem-stone in his belt-pouch, hefting his considerable pack over-shoulder with casual ease and placing a sizable donation of one-thousand Lions to the church tithe-box. With a bronzed sun sifting lazily through a foggy, due-struck morning, Dylan takes his leave towards the War Wizard's Tower... a focused, yet relaxed expression painting his Orcan (Quarter-Orc), yet ruggedly handsome features.

Before Dylan retires for the night, Henrik spends considerable time with him and seems to reassure him in quiet tones. He has been entrusted with a precious duty and that duty is welcomed without question. Dylan knows that whatever lies ahead, his instruction will be carried out. The envelope is guarded and the request is sacred to the healer. Henrik warmly gives Ilmater's blessing and a fatherly hug before the champion goes to his rest for the night. ----- The next morning and for all the hours, day and night that it is needed, a candle burns in a window, high up in the House with a bright light.
Space is held for those who are away in the world.

Anyone seeking Henrik is directed to other healers such as Siphanien or Tenna and told he and his wife are away visiting the House of The Broken God at Keltar in Calimsham.

Siphanien seems to spend more time in Suzail lately, resting there and taking care of Henrik's documentation, before now and then leaving towards Great Gaunt to aid activities there, leaving activities in other capable hands. She seems energetic, taking care of the tasks at hand without holding back, showing the same punctuality to the reports she writes as Henrik does.

Outside the House can be heard the sound of horses approaching, after a while the double doors open and the tall, white-robed figure of Henrik - laden with luggage - enters the House with a huge grin. He turns to say something to his wife behind him and almost trips over one of the huge bags he is hauling through the door.
"Good to be home!"

*Marister stands as they enter having waited a bit*
" Welcome back Henrick, hope you had an enjoyable trip. I am unable to stay long as I have Greengrass matters to attend. Alyisse has returned and I have directed her to you and the House.
I hope she will find a new purpose here."

Also a white robed priestess with a symbol of Torm enters the house of healing, would she tuck down her hood, one might see a northern human redhead. She raises a hand and grins, but friendly in greeting. To thise who may talk to her she would have an offer.
"Hey there, i'm back! In case anyone is in need of herbs or salves or potions, i have a few of each in store. Just let me know or leave a mesage here to Anna Larsson."

Also a white robed priestess with a symbol of Torm enters the house of healing, would she tuck down her hood, one might see a northern human redhead. She raises a hand and grins, but friendly in greeting. To thise who may talk to her she would have an offer. "Hey there, i'm back! In case anyone is in need of herbs or salves or potions, i have a few of each in store. Just let me know or leave a mesage here to Anna Larsson." Henrik expresses his gratitude to Marister, Siphanien and Anna "It is good to see all of you, that is wonderful news about Alyisse! I welcome your help sister Anna - perhaps you may be able to trade herbs people need for herbs they do not need or..make potions from their collections? That's something of use to adventurers in particular, they have some herbs they've collected and don't put them into salves or balms or potions..they could do with help" He chuckles at the thought of paperwork awaiting him "No time to get used to being home, straight back into the fray!"

Anna just grins. “Glad to be of use as always. That’s what I hope. Or we could trade between us healers, too. There’s some herbs I found a bunch of, others barely instead. “

There’s some herbs I found a bunch of, others barely instead. “ "The one that will be of most use is Blood Staunch" Henrik smiles "It is cheap to use as component for potions and salves and a potion made today could save a life in a difficult situation tomorrow, people also love to trade for chickory if you find it. Spaghnum moss, wound seal, all good but need a -little- gold for the alchemy - not a problem for you, sister"

“Right, I can always ask for a little donation for work and materials. Gives us some more income for foods, medics and whatever else is needed for the patients.” She smiles. “So, want to see what I have here.”

*Alvin enters the House of Healing to see if he may help in any way* The infirmary door opens, Henrik emerges with a child hanging onto his hand and another child under his other arm. The two boys are squabbling furiously. The white-robed healer sits one child down in the pews and the other at a refectory table - both with drawing materials and parchment. They are instructed not to talk to each other for an hour. "Divide and conquer" The healer says pleasantly as he drifts back towards Alvin "Can I help you?"

Anna was sitting nearby, writing a list. As Henrik enters educating the two children she grins. “Youth can be painful but remember, it will always get better. Once you grow up, you will know your duties and understand.”
As Alvin comes in she would join them with her list in hand, she grins friendly. ”Hey there, Alvin,” then she turns to Henrik. “Huh, brother, this is Alvin. Newly converted to Torm. He’s a skilled fighter. He may be able to help with the security, to guard the patients and healers where the violence free people can’t.” She suggests. Also she would show the list to them. “If you know anyone who may have need of herbs, salves or potions, please send them our way. That may also help already. Don’t forget to mention, we’re cheaper than the market tenders.”
The list would contain the following goods.
This list was also laced out openly to everyone to see who might come to the house of healing.

Wonderful, do come in" He looks grateful for Anna's list "We must open the lab up..uh, what would you like to do Alvin? Sometimes we do get difficult visitors, as we are a sanctuary we deal with it in a discreet manner..there are other things to do too, Brother Eustace-" He nods to the balding monk in charge of the kitchen "always needs a hand distributing food, cleaning and making sure those inside and outside have what they need...at times, people need a chat..a friendly face to talk to is very welcome"

Henrik smiles, the tall healer shoots a stern look at the two boys who were pulling faces at each other across the shrine hall "If you'll excuse me, I must expedite the treatment of their mother before hostilities resume - good to have you here Alvin, Ilmater bless you" He pauses to catch his breath "I'm Henrik by the way, adorned healer..Triadic Chaplain...welcome to the House!" He's gone in a sudden swirl of robes back into the infirmary after poking an acolyte to make sure the boys stay apart and adding "Make sure Alvin gets a good meal as our thanks for his help"
