Titania's brief satisfaction disappeared.
"I found him with a young woman," she said. "She was badly injured, bruised across her face and arms, barely able to keep herself upright. He was hurting her when I entered. She saw me and pleaded for help."
The room seemed to cool despite the brazier.
"I separated them," Titania continued, her tone remaining even only because she had likely repeated the memory enough times that anger had been forced into discipline. "The Hero decided that my interruption was an insult and attempted to order me away. When I refused, he reached for his weapon. I did not give him time to use it."
"How badly?" Ludwig asked.
Misty answered this time. "Lady Titania put him through three walls of a residential manor, shattered his dominant shoulder, broke both knees, and only stopped because I reminded her that killing him without witnesses present would complicate matters."
