Fin looked up at Meg. Her face was wet from crying, but she also looked very determined. He understood in that moment. She had done something important to help him.
"You..." he started to say, but his voice was just a rough sound. He felt incredibly tired, more tired than he had ever been.
"Don't try to talk right now, Fin," Meg said, her voice a little shaky but firm. "Just rest. You were… in a really bad way."
Scarlet was there too, and she looked pretty beat up herself. She grumbled, "Yeah, Boss. You gave all of us a real scare this time. You almost checked out for good." She shifted uncomfortably where she knelt. "My arm is seriously killing me, by the way."
Arachne watched him, and her usual calm face showed clear signs of exhaustion. "My Lord, your core was almost completely depleted. Meg was able to… assist in its stabilization."
