Pike grumbled something inaudible under his breath and sat up again, this time more slowly. His head and body seemed to appreciate his patience, and accepted the maneuver without the dizziness that had occured last time. After his breathing had almost returned to normal he got to his feet and untied the length of rope which was attached to his belt. He then proceeded to walk over to Merek and began tieing the bandits hands behind his back before he woke up. The wound on his stomach had slowed bleeding, but not stopped. His shirt was stained red with a combination of his own blood, and Cols from when the arrow hit his arm. His throat was also quite sore and bruised, and made swallowing more of a challenge than normal.
