Shadows Consume what Fire Cleanses

Aminon jumped to her feet and relaxed when she saw the fire in the middle of the cave. She walked over to it and laid down in front of it and then she finally noticed that Kalib was nowhere to be found. As her heart rate sped up she heard him whistling as he strolled right back into the cave and he stopped again as he saw her.
"Hey Ami, I would've woken you up, but you been through a lot the past few days and I just thought you would like a little more sleep." Kalib told her as he messed with the bundle on his back.
"You fucking dipshit." Ami shrieked before charging at him.
Kalib caught her by the shoulder and looked at her for a second before stepping past her and laying the bundle in one of the corners of the cave. Aminon walked over to him and watched as he unrolled the bundle.
"Hay?" Aminon asked him.
"You sound unimpressed." Kalib replied as he spread the hay out evenly before plopping down on it. "That's better."
"Do I have to tie you down?" Aminon asked him.
"No, I'm done moving around for now." Kalib told her.
"I'll head out before it gets to cold, I need to get stuff for us to eat." Aminon told him. "You need to rest."

Kalib fell onto his back and watched her leave.

Aminon searched the ground for anything edible other than mushrooms and she grin slightly when she found a good patch of dandelions. She quickly picked the field before flying back to the cave where Kalib was limping around moving boulder like stones.
"You thick skulled motherfucker." Aminon growled as she stalked over to him. "I told you to rest."
"There's so much to do around here." Kalib told her before he kicked the rock repeatedly causing it to break apart several smaller rocks.
He then dragged a basket full of snow which he used magic to dump it into the rock line crater.
"Another bathing pool?" Aminon asked him.
"Drinking water." Kalib replied.
Aminon looked at the curtains hiding the hay bedding and then the cooking pit. She let out her breath slowly before putting the packet filled with her findings before jabbing her hoof into Kalib's chest.
"You need to rest, you need to fucking rest or I'll... I'll knock you out." Antigone told him.
Kalib smiled slightly before he glanced at package of mushrooms and dandelions.
"I'll have the food ready in a moment just go lay down." Aminon told him.

Kalib chuckled before walking behind the curtains and Aminon sighed when she heard him start to snore.

Aminon slowly poured the soups into two different bowls that Kalib had crafted and carefully lit an incense to mask the mushroom smell as she pushed back the curtains. Kalib was laying on his good side so his back was to her and so was his bad eye. She put the bowls down and looked at the wound, sighing when she saw that the infection had lessened but she jumped as he snorted. He groaned at he sat up and looked at her before rubbing his face vigorously. He looked at the two bowls as Aminon pushed the mushroom soup towards him.
"Mushrooms?" He asked her.
"Yeah, it's either you eat it or I shove it down your damn throat." Aminon replied.
"I've just had a bad experience with em tis all." Kalib replied. "You aren't having the same thing?"
"I've eaten enough mushrooms to last me for the rest of my lifetime." Aminon replied.
"Well, I hate to tell you but that dandelions and water soup won't do much for you." Kalib told her.

"I've done with worse." Aminon replied.

After they got done with their dinner they washed up and now they were laying beside each. After awhile Aminon spoke up.
"There's something weird going on." Aminon told him.
"Yeah, I can feel an imbalance in the magical world." Kalib replied.
"I guess you won't rest until you figure it out?" Aminon asked him.
"I never will." Kalib replied.
"I'm going to stay with you only so you don't get yourself killed." Aminon told him.
Before she could react he hugged her gently but she pushed him back gently.
"I ain't used to that touchy feely shit." Aminon told him.
"Let me hug you ya little shit." Kalib chuckled while he tried to hug her again
