Summary
Orym wakes up to the scent of iron. The groggy recognition of the smell of blood jolts him fully awake, and he sits bolt upright in bed where he’s cradled between Dorian and Fearne. Dorian has shifted in the night, rolling over to his side, and Orym’s eyes are instantly drawn to the dark, red stain coating the entire left side of Dorian’s clothing. Some of it looks long dried, but there’s a fresh spot that, coupled with the smell, tells Orym that something is still bleeding, and badly. Orym feels like he can’t breathe. For a moment he hears nothing but the pounding of his heart in his ears, and it’s only made worse when he realizes he can’t tell if Dorian is breathing or not. Without even hesitating, he’s yelling at the top of his lungs as he rolls Dorian onto his back, desperately checking for a pulse.
Dorian hides an injury and it goes about as well as you'd expect.

Summary
Orym doesn’t unclench his fists until the three of them are back in their room at Eshteross’ manor, having decided it was safer to stay with him than go back to the inn. He takes his armor off quickly, hardly pausing to think the moment he’s through the door. He pushes past Dorian, unable to even look at him, the anger and the fear from the night burning hotter than Mister’s flames. He knows if he even looks at Dorian for longer than half a second, the fear will turn to vitriolic anger and he’ll end up saying something he regrets. Or worse, saying more than he ever intends to.
————————
After the ball, Orym deals with how close he could have come to losing Dorian.

Summary
He can hear Dorian gasping in horror to his right, and he struggles to stay upright, keeping his shield arm raised and his injured arm as unthreatening as possible. It’s excruciating, and he isn’t sure he can take much more of this. And then the crossbow is reloaded with incredible speed, and it’s being leveled at Dorian now. Orym’s heart, thundering in his ears, skips several beats. His stomach jumps into his throat, and he has to fight the nausea and the panic back down.
