“I don’t know.what you’re talking about.”, Allen rebuked while breathing heavily and sweating profusely.

Nera immediately understood the meaning behind this gesture. She also noticed that although he had flinched, he had stopped himself from pulling his arms back. Curiously, she had also felt a tinge of pain as well. Nera did not quite believe that and looked at her hand. Nera unconsciously reached out and the tip of her finger made miniscule contact with one of the burn marks for the briefest of instances which caused Allen to yell out in pain. It was an excruciating feeling like his arms were constantly being run over with red hot tongs. They just showed up out of nowhere and now it feels like my arms are on fire.”, Allen grunted in pain trying to bear it as best he could but was having trouble doing so. They resembled burn marks and had a pattern like a leafless tree. “What happened to your arms!?”, Nera yelled out to Allen in worry as she kneeled down as well and examined the dark red scars strewn across his limbs. His arms were hurting very much more than he would have expected them to after the battle with the draugr specter. Still inside of the expanse that covered the forest with metallic items scattered around and a circular, segmented ring of clouds in the sky, Allen collapsed to his knees as he gritted his teeth in pain.
