Start from the beginning
                                        

The hermit's with wings are frozen in place by magic.

Tango falls.

TangoTek Fell From A High Place

"Oh thank goodness." Keralis gasps as his com buzzes, "He's respawned."

Wels runs for the other side of the cliff, spreading his wings he leaps into the air and heads for spawn.

"Now you're down two hermit's." He laughs harshly.

Void curls around Impulse, Drawing his axe Impulse glares, "You're right, you don't deserve another chance." He lunges, swinging his axe down, cutting Avar's arm.

Tacking the blood in his fingers Avar grins, "Well, I haven't felt this in ages..."

Buzzing his wings Keralis makes a gagging sound, "That's gross ."

The hermits raise their weapons and watch as Avar unclips his swords from his belt.

Landing gently next to the spawn tent Wels pauses to catch his breath. "Tango?"

"Wels?" A voice calls from inside.

"Hey, can I come in?"

"Uh hu."

"How are you feeling?" Wels ask as he sits on the floor.

"Bad," Tango shudders, "Like respawn sickness, but worse, and thinking's hard... feels like jello. I don't tink twice in a row is good."

"Did you get clothes?"

Tango shakes his head. "s too cold."

Holding out his hand Wels stands up, "Can I pick you up?"

Tango gives a shaky nod, but as soon as Wels gets hin halfway into his arms he thrashes, screaming he falls back to the bed. "Sorry..."

"It's ok," Wels murmurs, "I should have thought that though more, how about I bring the ender chest over here. Would that work?"

Nodding Tango curls his tail around his chest. "Can you get the stegosaurus?"

"Of course."

Soon enough Tango's dressed in fitting clothes.

Clamoring back into the Bed he huddles into a ball and looks at Wels, "Don't leave me alone."

Wels sighs, dropping his wings, "I won't..."

Shaking Tango whines and burrows down into the blankets.

"Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea," Wels starts singing, sitting down by the edge of the bed, "and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. Little Jackie paper loved that rascal puff. and brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff."

Sniffing Tango pokes his head out and curls against Wels's side. Grabbing one of Tango's thermal blankets Wels card a hand though Tango's hair.

"Oh Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee."

Eyes sliding closed Tango's breathing evens out.

"Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail. Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came. Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared out his name.–" As Wels finishes the song Tango's sound asleep.

Tucking him into the Bed, Wels stand up. Drawing his sword he looks between it and Tango.
