Rachel's POV

It's been a year since we beat king mercinare and Ira and the others came back a month ago. The thing is though... Ira's been acting strange lately, he's been wearing baggy clothes, acting more paranoid, and causing attacks less and less. I'm currently on a night walk to help clear my head when I see something from the corner of my eye in the alleyway. I decide to check it out and gasped when I saw what it was. It was Ira! He was passed out in an alleyway! I immediately checked for injuries and was shocked to find that he was really malnourished with his ribs showing and he had multiple cuts and bruises all over his body! I immediately took him home and started cleaning his wounds. When I was disinfecting a pretty nasty cut he woke up. "Oh! Your awake!" I said surprised. "Uhh... What the-!!!" Ira started, but when he tried to sit up while talking he appeared to be in a lot of pain when he sat up, so he quickly lied down again. "Be careful! Your in terrible condition! You need to lie down for a while! I'll get you something to eat after I tend to your wounds." I said.
