Raven who was now in the medical ward turned to Lily. "How did what happen? My injuries or my arm?" Said Raven as he takes out a small vile of a red liquid from his belt. The vile contains a powerful potion that replenishes ones physical health, but only slightly. As Raven pops the cap off with his thumb he drinks the red liquid. Feeling a little better than before, but not by much. "Damn I hate how those taste... they claim they taste like cherry, but in reality they taste like complete crap." He said after placing the empty vile on the cot next him. Raven simply looked around the room looking somewhat depressed. This room... all these injured and dead men remind him of something terrible that happened in his past.

Lily frowned when she saw what Raven was looking at and put her hand on his shoulder.

"It's okay.", she said, trying to ease his depression.

In truth, it really wasn't okay. Everywhere around them, people were suffering and were in extreme pain. They were either riddled with bullets from the Nemesis gatlings, had ruptured organs from being attacked by the Ndesu 2, or impaled by the Tyrants. Various groans, coughs, and alarmed voices could be heard throughout the room. It was truly a grim sight, one that would fill even the most seasoned soldiers with sadness.

"What game are you from?", Lily asked Raven, trying to take their minds off of their surroundings.

Raven sighed and turned to her. "Stop trying to make me feel better... I've been through this kind of thing before..." He said as he sits up.

Seeing all the death around him reminded him of when everything he loved and cared for was taken from him.

"I'm from an MMO called Elsword. My name is Raven, once a proud captain of the Crow Mercenaries where I came from... but sadly... not anymore." He said as he examined the damage on his Nasod Arm.

Lily was a little taken aback by Raven's words, but didn't seem bothered. In the end, she was simply trying to help him stay at ease.

Lily looked at the damaged arm and decided to ask about it.

"How did you damage it?", Lily asked Raven in a calm tone.

Raven looked at his arm and smirked a little. "Over heated it. You see my Nasod Arm here was modified to allow me to increase it's power by overheating it, but at the cost of damaging it as well as myself. Meaning I have to be careful with it. With my arms I can fire flames, fireballs, and even small short ranged missiles. Overheating it increases the power of my attacks greatly." Said Raven as he looked at Lily.

"My arm is a powerful weapon which I do credit it for, but it has brought me nothing but pain. Both physical and emotional."

Lily was curious about Raven's arm. It actually reminded her of Spartan-728's arm, only that it was a part of the suit and not a part of his body. She had heard of biometals, but never something on this level. Lily was hesitant to ask Raven about his past, due to the pain he said that his arm caused, but perhaps it would be good for him to share and open up.

"What happened?", Lily asked him.

Raven sighed as he looked back to his arm.
"Well you see...
I was a fellow commoner from the Kingdom of Velder, I rejected the idea of nobles and aristocrats. However, I was still proud of my kingdom, and thus worked hard to become the Captain of the Crow Mercenary Knights. Being a commoner in such a high-ranking position, caused jealousy among the nobles. It was just a matter of time before I was framed and sentenced to prison. My friends, comrades, and fiancée rescued me and hid within the forest in the outskirts of Velder.

However it did not take long before we were all surrounded by Velder soldiers and slaughtered one by one. Everything that I cared for and loved... was stripped away from me, right before my very eyes. I just stood there and stared at all the dead bodies around me as I slowly took what would have been my last few breaths... but that's when he appeared... a large Nasod being appeared and offered me a contract, for rebirth and power. I was promised that if I accepted that I would be able to conquer Velder and avenge my fallen men... Unfortunately I made the foolish decision to accept his offer.

After god knows how long I woke up in a capsule with devices attached to me, as well as this arm made from Nasod technology. I became the leader of the Velder Rebellion and blindly fought to destroy the kingdom I once protected... but soon I realized my mistake when I was defeated by a young boy named Elsword, a young female mage named Aisha, and a female Elf Ranger named Rena. I then joined their party after that and continued to fight in honor of my fellow Crow Mercenaries that were killed.

Since then I fought for the good of the land. To protect it, and to keep the name of the Crow Mercenaries alive... I still do... even to this day. Though now I work for you guys, that is until I find out where my friends are. Once I do that I will be leaving this place to look for them." Said Raven as he looks at Lily.

"Well that's my story."

Hearing Raven's story saddened her. Losing one's family was perhaps the worst fate to suffer through and not only that, but to have that much guilt must be hard.

"Well know that you always have family here. You may not be a Spartan, but you proved today that you have just as much courage as any one of us. If you want, I can organize a search for your friends and see if they made it to this world. Would you like that?", Lily asked.

Raven looked at her with a look of slightly cheery look on his face. It was obvious that made him feel slightly better. For the first time since he met his Elsword and the others he felt like he actually found a place where he belonged. "Thanks... that means quite a lot..." Replied Raven as perks up a bit even more.

"I would appreciate it if you did that." Said Raven as he smiles. He then takes out another vile of the same red liquid. He then tosses it to the Lily. "Drink it, you should feel better even if not by much."

Lily smiled at the gesture and handed Raven the Biofoam canister.

"And here's some Biofoam. It stings a lot at first, but you'll feel much better afterwards.", Lily said as she opened the vial and drank from it.

As soon as she downed the drink, she began to have a coughing fit and put her palm to her mouth.

"You weren't lying when you said it tasted bad. This tastes like cherry flavored sewage.", Lily said at she gave a disgusted look at the vial.
