Latia : it may hurt a bit your highness if you think its too painful here [she gave him a stick] bite this[ he bit the stick and didn't say anything and Latia poured the wine in his wounded leg the prince bite hard on the stick and let out a pitiful grunt after that Latia light the match and burn the wound the young prince can't contain his pain any longer and a tears fell from his eyes and than he passed out
Latia : (wow he is tough if it was me maybe I've already cried) you did great you may as well sleep
