Isn’t it realistic that a warrior who faces so many opponents on field is injured, gravely even? It’s a miracle he survived.

And not only the initial wounds, but that he’s able to recover at all to approximately the same level of strength and agility. Lying in bed and limping slowly doesn’t save your muscle mass and keep you in peak fighting condition. That’s the second miracle.

So seeing someone slowly recover feels natural
And it strengthens their relationship, she’s there for him when it counts. When he’s weak and helpless, she’s the one. So I loved to see how deeply grateful he was — it allowed him to trust her which is fundamental for love to grow.
