[Of course, the first person to come across the little sage is going to be either Lyn or Jaffar, who have been searching madly for her. Lyn's just coming back from her latest foray out into the forest when she spies a familiar head of green hair...
Oh spirits, can it be... Running over, she stops next to the tree Nino's lying against, and her eyes widen.]
[Too exhausted to talk, unfortunately, but she'll do her best to smile at you so that you don't worry, lady Lyn! :( She'll try to nod lightly too, which will trigger light coughing.]
[She manages a barely noticeable nod. She would try to make this easier for lady Lyn, but not only did she lack the strength, anything she may do now will only make things more difficult for Lyn. With the mere with that lady Lyn could know how grateful she is for this, she will just close her eyes until she can see Jaffar again.
...
This is going against principles. She should actually simply rest until she is well enough to move, but... she has to see him. Even if it would cost her the little energy that she would have regained from resting, in such a short period of time. Energy that should be used to stay vigilant, especially after what happened.
Still, she had complete trust in the two people that are here now - she will make an apology to the Reeds once she recovers.]
[Nino is, unsurprisingly (and thankfully) very light in Lyn's arms. Lifting her into a carrying position is easy for her, and with a mind to both the speed of their movement and Nino's comfort, Lyn turns towards the village to begin loping along at a reasonable speed, intending to get her home as quickly as possible.
Her own body is protesting from the effort she's been putting it under searching for Nino and Rebecca, as well as training, but Lyn endures. She'll rest when Nino's safe.]

[And give this guy a few minutes and he'll be arriving on the scene like a red-and-black thunderbolt, cape/cloak and all. He's been running, of course, but to see Nino in Lyn's arms there... she looks fine, is his first conclusion, and his thoughts grow easy after that. This level of injury should be nothing to her.
As to Lyndis, though, he gives a polite nod. A thankful sort of nod, really. He won't insist to carry Nino, but clearly the offer is implied if it was tax her]

[He did this enough so that she didn't even need to open her eyes to confirm his presence.
Cracking open her eyes, she looked at him for the first time in months. The relief in her smile was unmistakable. She needs sleep, but... it's good to be back. Good to be around people she knew and care for again. Good to see them okay again. Good to have... Jaffar, there, again.
They must have been through a lot, too. There's a lot that she needs to do once she recovers!]
[She favors Jaffar with a smile as he arrives, her movements slowing and stopping just long enough for the two to give each other a little silent hello (and to let her legs rest just a little bit). Then after a moment, she speaks up again.]
Come on. Not far now. [And she's off, figuring Jaffar will have no problem keeping pace.]
[Naturally he won't in the least, and Jaffar will be keeping pace with her quite well, even if he is lagging behind a tad with his hands on his Killing Edges. There might be some beat or some villain in these woods, after all]
[Lyn'll do her best to keep the trip smooth enough that Nino can just doze the whole way. When they reach the place she's staying at, she stops and turns to Jaffar.]
[And like a damned butler, he will instantly do. Door gotten, holding it open, allowing Lyn to get in there. ...We really need to figure out where everyone is living here]
[And Jaffar... will be placing his rump into a crouch here on the floor next to that bed. He's not going to move from here unless he needs to eat, but he gives a nod of thanks to Lyn all the same]
[She looks over at him and just gives a nod of her own back, then walks to the door with a rather deliberately steady gait. That kind of too-steady one where you know the person is trying way too hard.]
Oh spirits, can it be... Running over, she stops next to the tree Nino's lying against, and her eyes widen.]
Nino...

Don't you worry, we'll get you back. Jaffar'll be on his way soon. Meantime, here... [She moves to lift her.]

And before you know it, she may or may not start to doze off - she's already pushed her limits too far.]

Can you get the door?

There. She should be fine with just some rest now.

Let me know when she wakes up, will you?
