Meanwhile...

(Theo is walking with a hand over his wound)

Theo: Ughhhhhhh... No healing magic left... losing... health... Lance is... taking far more time than he ought. My future appears grim... ...Stupid... ...fighter...

(Lance comes running up to him)

Lance: Theo! You're alive! I made it in time!

Theo: Lance! Hurry, I fear that my health has nearly dimin-

(Theo falls to the ground)

DEATH!

Lance: ...Theo?? Theo! (...This is bad! At least I got to him in time. He's in my party now, right? I'm still here--there's one party member left, which means I can still revive him--provided I make it to another healer... I'll NEVER hear the end of this. ...In retrospect, at least he died before I could tell him that I never found the herb he wanted).

(Silvia walks up)

Silvia: What'd I miss?
