Jaekob Faolan digs the tip of his boot into the soft dirt and looks at his friend, "Worried, Can? What worries you?"
Can Wobbit: "I have been searching for Fit all over Taibreamh all morning...."
Can Wobbit: "...and could not find her , and she did not leave any message."
Can Wobbit: "So I searched here by the farm."
Jaekob Faolan: "That is odd. Perhaps, in Calenhad or helping someone at the infirmary in Cheshire?
Can Wobbit: "It is not her way, to leave without letting me know where and why she would go on some errand."
Can Wobbit: "So I hoped to get some news from you."
Can Wobbit |
Can Wobbit: "The only place I have not checked now is the infirmary in Cheshire."
Can Wobbit: "I will try there ..."
Jaekob Faolan: "Look there then and if she does not show up soon, I will have my rangers search for her," he says beginning to chew on his lip.
Can Wobbit: "Thank you very much , Master Druid. But, I still hope to find her safe and sound."
Jaekob Faolan: "Ah, my friend. I was little help. But, am sure she is fine, just tasked with some duty," he says remembering he had talked with her about going to Mirkwood in search of the Unseelie and shifts nervously.
Can Wobbit looks at you a bit concerned.
Jaekob Faolan: "If....if.... you do not find her, do let me know hmmm?
Can Wobbit: "I will go now , and seek for her ... I´m still worried."
Can Wobbit: "Have a nice day, Jaekob."
Jaekob Faolan: "Namaarie my friend."
Meanwhile at the infirmary....
Can Wobbit runs up to the infirmary, following the master Druids suggestion, that she might be there helping someone and knocks at the door ... still panting from the long run .... and hopes for a response from inside.
He knocks again after a few seconds.. louder, and more urgently, and waits again. But there´s no answer.
So he steps to the window, putting both hands on the glass to have a better look inside ... and his heart misses a beat, nearly stops beating at all .. he dashes back to the door, pushes it open, and makes a run into the room.
Then he slows down, and approaches the bed, his eyes fixed on the woman laying there motionless.
"My heart," he whispers ... and then the words leave him.
Can steps close, and puts his right palm on her forehead, and laces his left hands fingers in hers ... "Thanks to the Goddess," he mutters with a breath of deep relief.
"She is alive !!!!"
"What happened to you, my dear," he softly asks and bends down kissing her forehead. He felt the warmth of a living skin on his lips and again his heart took up hope and relief again.
He did not really hope for an answer, but was just more than glad to have found her alive.
Can takes a long and solemn look at Fit´s face, pale and worn out; but there also was a sheen of peace on it. He took a tear from his eye on his fingertip, and put it on her lips .... and ... there was a faint movement in her face.
"I must find the Druid," he whispers in excitement "and ask him for help, he does not seem to know about you laying here ... I must find him at once !!!"
"I will come back as soon as I have found him, my heart." and with these words, he unlaces his fingers, and strokes her cheek gently, kissing her forehead again.
" I will be back, and watch on your side."
Can steps back to the door, keeping his eyes on the beloved woman, and finally turns round, running, running for the Druid.
A little later.....
Jaekob Faolan turns around to see Can returned, "Vedui, my friend. Any luck finding Fit?"
Can Wobbit: "Oh, Master Druid! Come quick!!"
Can Wobbit: "She´s lying in the infirmary ... and she seems to be hurt..."
Jaekob Faolan raises a brow, "In the infirmary? What? I will follow you."
Can Wobbit: "She is alive, as far as I can tell .. but does seem to be in a deep swoon or sleep."
Can Wobbit: "That´s why I came here, Master Druid."
Jaekob Faolan "Then let us go there right aways," he says and quickly rushes past Can, headed for the infirmary in Cheshire.
Can Wobbit turns around heading for Cheshire.
Jaekob Faolan rushes into the infirmary and stops short seeing her, his face impassive, "What the...." and he rushes to her side.
Can Wobbit follows Jaekob into the infirmary.
Can Wobbit steps to the other side of the bed. He takes Fit's hand and looks at the Druid.
Jaekob Faolan: "Fit, Fit," he says softly kneeling down beside her bed, immediately examining the bandages on her arm. "This is Fiesty's doing. I recognize the wrapping." And he slowly begins to unwrap the bandage as Fit lays there apparently unconscious.
Can Wobbit watches anxiously.
Jaekob Faolan: "By the Ghods....," he whispers as he sees the wound, red and infected.
Can Wobbit: "this wound looks serious, I can tell, even I´m no healer or Druid
Jaekob Faolan nods, his eyes cutting to Can, "The wound itself is small, but it seems the blade that struck her was dipped in some type of poison. I suspect it was spider venom from the spiders in Mirkwood."
Can Wobbit: " And it does not look like a normal cut .. I remember the sting in my leg, from the spiders in Underdark."
Can Wobbit: "Thanks to Fit , she cured it."
Can Wobbit looks at Jaekob.
Can Wobbit: "You can help her, can't you ?"
Jaekob Faolan nods and smiles, looking from one to the other, "She did that my friend and we will cure Fit. She is in a heavy sleep but whatever Fiesty did slowed the poison and she will be fine, I promise."
Jaek and Can with Fit (NPC Fit) |
Jaekob Faolan gently wraps the bandage over the wound, "I will gather the necessary ingredients for an antidote and give it to her. She will probably be bedridden a couple of days, but she will be fine."
Can Wobbit smiles faintly, but full of hope.
Jaekob Faolan: "Elves are generally immune to most poisons. Surely had she been human, it would have taken its toll, killed her. But her elven blood is fighting it off."
Can Wobbit smiles again.
Jaekob Faolan: "Sit with her my friend, and let me gather the things I need for the potion. I will return later with it and she should be up and about on the morrow."
Can Wobbit: "I will stay by her side, and be here, when she wakes, if I get your leave, Master Druid ?"
Jaekob Faolan: "You do not need my leave to be here. Stay as long as you wish and if she awakens, let her know I am working on an antidote."
Can Wobbit: "I will."
Jaekob Faolan smiles down at Fit and rises to leave.
Jaekob Faolan: "Namaarie, my friend. I will return as soon as I can."
Can Wobbit sits down by Fits side, watching her and holding her hand.
Can Wobbit: Save Paths , my friend
That is such a bittersweet roleplay... nice to see Can about! *smile*
