Everything hurts.

I squint open my eyes, then close them again. Even the torchlight hurts. 

'Ow.' Is all I can do. 'Ow.'

'Grian?'

'Mumbo? Why does my everything hurt?' I try to open my eyes again. Mumbo's sitting or standing next to me. My brain can't decipher which.

'You... almost killed yourself fighting the Watcher. And then... you Hotguyed it.' 

'Oh yeah.' I close my eyes to sleep again.

'Grian?'

'I'm tired...' I don't even know what he wants me to answer or do. 'Let me... sleep.'

'Do you... not comprehend that you saved everyone and... killed the leader of the Watchers in a battle.' 

I don't reply. My mind runs through the fight again. Scar's magic crystals saved my life. The crystals Cub gave me for luck.

'I need to apologise to Cub.' I decide. 'Thank him. Whatever. Words are hard.' 

'Grian?'

'Whaaat?' I glare at him. I know I'm not thinking properly, my jumbled mind hopping from idea to idea.

'You're not thinking straight.'

'I know... can I sleep?'

'Fine. But everyone wants to know you're ok.'

'I'm alive. I think.' I close my eyes to sleep again. Anothr thought comes into my mind.

'What happened to the other watchers?' 

'We... Cub, Martyn and Pearl mostly... killed the other one there. We haven't heard from the other two. But... we think we're safe.'

Safe.

'I saved Hermitcraft.' I mumble. 'Wow.'

'Yeah. You did. Well... I'll let you sleep. Bye Grian.'

'Bye, Mumbo.'

I close my eyes and fall asleep, finally safe from the Watchers.
