Swiftcurrent Creek too late; i'm coming undone

Eshe returned with the fermented fruit and placed the parcel bein front of Akavir. The ball was in his court; he could do whatever he pleased with it. On the other hand, instead of joining in with him, she would watch over him and ensure he was safe, hydrated, and fed; it was a promise made to @Arric that she'd keep.

When Akavir was finally asleep that evening, Eshe stayed awake, watching him breathe and thankful that his discomfort was temporarily gone. What he'd be like in the morning would be another story, but that was a problem for later.
