Redsand Canyon I wish I was special

The imperator met them first, welcoming them back and moving to help support Kallik as he slowly stood. He hoped the tone of Germanicus' voice meant that they were forgiven and had earned back their promotions. A cougar, he said through gritted teeth. We took care of it. The image of the bloodied beast torn open flashed in his mind, and he felt relief knowing it wouldn't be able to hurt anyone else. 

Then Aquene arrived and stole his focus. His gaze was immediately drawn to her limp, then to her wounds. She mentioned something about getting them to the tablinum but Kallik was too busy trying to control the flash of rage in his chest. What happened? the auxillary asked, pain and anger leaking into his voice. He knew both he and Glaukos only had so much left in them. Once the pain was controlled, Kallik knew he would pass out. But for now, he could only think about whoever had hurt Aquene. 

He would follow where they led, but he still expected his question to be answered.
