Oh -- I'm still alive? Huh.

He has his priorities -- of course S'ria is worried

No one else is thrilled about this

S'RIA IS SORRY, he knew what he did would warrant being scolded.

S'ria is quite badly injured let's... Be gentle with him.

While the game may have WoL getting back on their feet within a minute of waking, that is very much not the case for S'ria.

A major part of his injuries were to his ribs, which magic is only able to properly set and encourage regrowth, but not fully heal back to normal strength. He'll need a while until he can resume physical activities without damaging them, and even then he will still be experiencing pain for months or years.

Additionally, with him taking chest injuries -- back during Stormblood, Zenos pierced one of his lungs. While it's long healed, it does leave S'ria vulnerable to that lung failing him again if even just hit in the chest hard enough. (Which. He absolutely was, in this case.)

While most of his other injuries were able to be healed with little fuss, he's dealing with some complex fractures in his right leg. It'll eventually heal enough to fight, but it won't ever be quite the same again.)

Needless to say, the post-6.0 timeframe is not short in Snowverse, as it'll be likely 2-3 months before he is medically cleared to resume training and get back on his feet with light fighting.
