The morning light emerges.
Next to Duncan lies the still sleeping Crow Queen Triss. She has to both keep her vow and take care of Duncan, which has truly exhausted her.
At this moment, she rather misses Anya.
A breeze brushes by.
Duncan quietly rises, puts on a coat, and steps out of the camp. His wounds have been rebandaged and are now scabbing over; they will be completely healed in a day or two. Perhaps due to the suppression of supernatural powers at the end of the mythological era, the effect of regeneration isn't as amazing. Although the wounds heal quickly, intense activity can cause them to reopen. Bleeding would result in a small sliver of virtual health bar depletion, which often requires a large intake of food and nutrients to recover fully.
Avalon's scabbard can only prevent continuous bleeding, but since it hasn't been completely finished, it's not as powerful as the legends say.
