[ The last few days have been a whirlwind of activity. Fighting and planning and securing and escorting. Ashe is used to the trials of war, used to long marches and even longer battles. Harsh conditions and daunting enemies. But having to deal with all that while terrified to his very bones has drained him more than even he realized.
The very moment the threat abated and they were allowed a few seconds to breathe, exhaustion hit him hard and he dropped fully clothed into bed like a lead weight, not rising until well in the afternoon the next day. As it is, he’s still kind of sluggish, still kind of hurting, so he hasn’t made it far out of his room.
He didn’t expect anyone to come looking for him, but it would be Mercedes of all people to show up at his door. ]
