No one? She doesn't need to be a warrior, a knight or even a wizard. She already has a title - she is a lady of the castle. It just she doesn't like her position in life, which is understandable, she did not choose it. But it's not a way to handle it - going to the dangerous mission with no preparation at all. Everyone are crying - they had no choice, they needed a healer. Naaah, it is clear that magic healers are rare in this world, knights are trained to handle themselfs. Healer is a bonus, yes, but they should have been ok without one.
U don’t understand. At times like this—the commander could assign one of his troops to lead while his gone. That man love his wife, he’d do anything for her and he knows her better than any of his troop. Do you think they could’ve found her faster than riftan? Just seconds later she could’ve been literally dead. it’s been known riftan would drop anything for his lovely wife and let’s not act like that’s a bad thing lol
Why can't she? Or would you rather they bring with them the frail, old mage instead? This wasn't a good idea from Maxi, but it couldn't be helped as Ruth has already gone ahead. I get that Maxi and Riftan are frustrating, but do widen your perspective on the plot and the setting. If you just try, everything makes sense, you know...
No one is okay without a healer. They're knights AND humans. Their enemy are monsters which regenerates twofold their numbers. The least you want is to have anyone get injured and decrease the number of your soldiers which could potentially drag the fighting post and strategy of the team.
You said "they should've been okay". It is precisely because they aren't okay, and the situation isn't okay that the need of a healer is imperative.
Classic damsel in distress. Needs to be saved by a big strong manly man. I hate it. Also, Riftan, hello, you are a commander. Did you just leave your troops in the woods somewhere and went along to search for your damsel? Welp...
