King grumbled to himself as he sat down on chastiefol as he floated over to the Infirmary Tent. He used one hand to hold onto the pillow disguised weapon, and the other was clenched into a fist, a rag soaking up the blood that came from the deep cut on his hand. He had been making vegetable soup for himself and Chihiro when he apparently got distracted and ended up cutting his hand when he had been cutting vegetables. He had magic, any type of healing magic he had though, he only like to use if injuries were worse than a simple cut. Heck, Chihiro's freaking out over it was worse than the cut. When he got to the tent, he hopped down from his pillow and walked inside, now holding the pillow to his chest. When he got inside, he spotted two people and lightly smiled.
"Hey, this is the infirmary tent, right? I kinda need some help."

Aidan and Aisling had only been out for a minute, checking out the nearby woods. It was certainly different from other places they had been. Kenya's climate didn't allow trees to get very tall. But, there was still a flowing river, and plenty of other plants growing around. They had just been about to see if Aidan had any books about the plants in this region when somebody entered the tent. A pillow was in one hand, and the other had a rag tied around it that was already soaked with blood.
"Ouch. What'd you do there buddy?" Aisling asked as she and Aidan hurried over. Cuts like these usually weren't serious, and they tended to happen for a variety of reasons, from a knife-throwing act going wrong to getting a little too close to an animal that had sharp teeth.

King let them see the cut on his hand while he explained "I was cutting some vegetables and I got distracted." King was embarrassed at that. It was common knowledge to pay attention while handling kitchen utensils. Sharp ones especially.
"I should have been paying more attention." He set chastiefol down so it wasn't in the way.

"Oh, that's not too bad," Aisling said reassuringly. "Aidan can fix that in no time. Right Aidan?"
"In a matter of speaking," Aidan replied as he walked over. "Closing the wound is the easy part. We just have to make sure that everything underneath it heals up properly." He took King's hand, double-checking to make sure it wasn't too serious. "Yeah, this isn't very deep. This should be patched up in a jiffy."

He lightly flinched when Aidan took his hand, the cut still hurting "Thank you, Aidan, Aisling." He nodded to each of them after he said their names "My name is King, by the way. It's a pleasure to meet you both." King smiled at them after he introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you King," Aisling said with a smile. It was kind of an unusual name, King. But lots of things were unusual at this circus, so she didn't mind.
Aidan felt King's hand flinch slightly as he touched it. "Sorry. This'll only take a second." He gently placed his palm on King's cut. A soft glow came from his hand, his healing magic doing its work. When he lifted his hand away, King's wound was closed up. "There we go, all fixed," he said. "Just be sure to keep an eye on it to make sure it heals up properly. And if it's hurting too much, I can get you something that'll numb the pain for a bit."

"Thank you very much, and if it hurts more, I'll let you know." King inspected his palm, smiling at the now healed cut "You're a very skilled healer." King hadn't met a healer before, but he had heard about them.
Walking over, he picked up chastiefol and held the giant pillow disguised weapon to his chest as he floated a few inches off the ground "Do I owe you anything? I'd hate to ask for help and not repay you in some way." King wanted to be sure that he wasn't cheating Aidan or Aisling out of payment for helping him.

"Flattery will get you no where, son," Aidan joked. But he appreciated the praise all the same. When King asked if he owed anything, Aidan shook his head. "Facilier's in charge of the pay around here. He gives us a salary so you guys can get the treatment you need."

King chuckled at Aidan's joke "Oh, alright." King smiled "Thanks again." King decided to try and make friends with them, he had Chihiro, but more friends would be nice. He hugged his pillow tighter "How long have you two been here?"

"A few years," Aisling replied. "We joined up with the circus when it was in Ireland." She put it simply, but she remembered how complicated things had been back then. Aidan had been a recluse, and it had taken a lot of prodding from her and Tulio to get him to trust people again. But, she felt like it had been worth it.

"A few years, that's cool. I've only been here a couple of months." Being with the cirque, while only for a short while, was the happiest he had been in a while. Chihiro was a great friend, and being around so many people with different abilities was much better than being alone.

"Oh, a newbie huh?" That made Aisling curious. She remembered Facilier getting some new circus members a while back, but she hadn't talked to them yet. "So, what can you do?" she asked. Everyone here usually had some type of talent that they could put to good use. Some people could talk to animals. Others could cook really well. There was a wide variety of talents here.

King smiled and waved his hand on the ground, where a few flowers grew in their place "I can grow plants." He hugged his pillow close and floated a few inches off the ground "I can fly, and..." Snapping his fingers, his pillow changed into his spear, Chastiefol, and he gracefully dropped to his feet on the ground. He was careful to keep the point of the spear pointed towards the ground so Aidan and Aisling wouldn't feel threatened by him ", this is Chastiefol."

Aisling was immediately intrigued by King's ability to make plants grow. She could do the same, so she was always enthusiastic to meet another plant-lover. And, it seemed like he was a bit of a fighter was well, with his pillow being able to transform into a spear. "Whoa," Aisling breathed in amazement. "That's so cool."
"Interesting," Aidan commented. "I've seen people able to transform many things into weapons, but this is my first time seeing a pillow turn into one." It was an interesting combination though. It could go from a completely non-threatening object to something you could defend yourself with.

"Growing plants isn't much. Everyone in my village could do it." He felt a pang of sadness, but continued to smile, happy that he was getting along with the two so far. The spear turned back into a pillow. Aidan seemed to know a bit about weapons, which made King smiled "Chastiefol's only been able to turn into a few things, but I know it can do more. I just haven't figured out how what else it can do. But so far, it's come in handy when I've needed it." The attack that happened to the circus a while ago had shown that. King had never been so grateful for his weapon as when that had happened.
