And it had all been going so well.
Admittedly, he hadn't really been paying attention to the environmental fallout of his attacks and he'd feel really dumb about that later, but for the moment he was too busy feeling like a ton of bricks had fallen on him as a tentacle finally succeeded in hitting his ship and swatting him from the sky like a bug. He managed to bring the Peregrine down under just enough control that she didn't shatter, but she wouldn't be flying again anytime soon and the courier himself wasn't in much better shape.
He groaned as he pulled himself from the wreckage, a cut over his brow from a broken spar sending blood over one eye and making him look a lot worse than he was. Probably. The bruises were pretty deep but nothing felt broken as the courier turned towards the voice in the water that was berating him, of all things?? Tal scowled, but before he could react further a couple of familiar voices were cutting through his daze and bringing him back into full awareness.
Flora, praying, and reminding him that he didn't have to do this alone.
And Noah, coming to lend a hand that was sorely appreciated right then.
"I'll live," he assured the Forsake, hauling himself up with a groan. "Lemme just--"
He took a deep breath and then added his prayers to Flora's, whose voice was definitely not coming from the weirdly frozen Doubletake down the beach from him, but maybe the fall had affected his vision? "What she said, Rae!" he called to the twin god. "Uh, please?"
Tal gets back on his feet beside Noah and adds his prayer to Flora's to try and channel Rae to clean up his mess!
