  4. [19:48] <irateTorrents> i think im crippled now, i cant a hand and part of my leg
  5. [19:48] <irateTorrents> its hard to remember
  6. [19:49] <crepuscularMagicant> I'll come over now
  7. [19:50] * crepuscularMagicant has ceased trolling irateTorrents
  8.  
  9. [19:50] * Naviai decaptcha's the hive key then captcha's laptop, all but running out of his hive
  10. [19:51] * Naviai locks the door, captcha's the key and runs to where Lozzeh's hive is
  11. [19:51] * Lozzeh is taking a long rest on a table
  12. [19:52] <Lozzeh> There is a line of blood on the entrance of Lozzeh's hive
  13. [20:05] * Naviai rushes through the door
  14. [20:06] * Naviai stops, and looks at Lozzeh
  15. [20:06] <Naviai> "W-What happened to you?"
  16. [20:07] * Lozzeh is still asleep, maybe unconscious, you should poke her or something.
  17. [20:08] * Naviai carefully shakes Lozzeh awake
  18. [20:09] <Lozzeh> " oh so it isnt a dream, "
  19. [20:09] <Naviai> "No, no it's not"
  20. [20:09] <Naviai> "What happened?"
  21. [20:10] <Lozzeh> "im gonna be crippled for life, i guess thats what i get for following the ways of the pirates"
  22. [20:10] <Lozzeh> " i think i got myself dragged to the sea "
  23. [20:11] <Lozzeh> " then i got here, all bloodied,bleeding and sore "
  24. [20:11] <Naviai> "Damn"
  25. [20:12] <Lozzeh> " i think im feeling better but not much at all "
  26. [20:12] <Naviai> "Can you walk? Wiait, stupid question. Uh..."
  27. [20:13] <Naviai> "Just... wiait here I guess. I'll get help"
  28. [20:14] <Lozzeh> "oh ok, ill go eat some swinefish for a while, im famished "
  29. [20:14] * Naviai makes sure that Lozzeh is relatively "safe" then rushes off back to his hive
  30. [20:15] * Naviai unlocks and goes into his hive, and calls out to snakedad
  31. [20:16] <Naviai> "Snakedad, I need help"
  32. [20:16] <Naviai> *Snakedad looks up, before lazily slithering over to the door
  33. [20:17] <Naviai> "A little faster would be good!"
  34. [20:17] * Naviai all but drags the poor snake out of the hive and towards Lozzeh's hive
  35. [20:18] <Naviai> "A little help with levitating?"
  36. [20:19] <Naviai> *Snakedad, annoyed, lashes his tail at Naviai before picking Lozzeh up
  37. [20:20] <Lozzeh> "huh what? where am i heading to? to the plank maybe, just joking "
  38. [20:21] <Naviai> "I'm going to try and get you to a healer"
  39. [20:21] <Naviai> "Try not to move"
  40. [20:23] * Naviai starts heading in the direction of the "lowblood" town, Snakedad and Lozzeh in tow
  41. [20:24] * Lozzeh looks up and see several buildings with scared inhabitants, I guess they're still afraid of you
  42. [20:39] * Naviai mutters a bit as he passes through the streets, trying to recall the way to the healer
  43. [20:51] <Serket> As you make your way through the streets of the town, you noticed a rather frustratnig lack of anything even vaguely resembling a place that someone who would call themselves a healer of any sort would stay at.
  44. [20:54] * Naviai mutters under his breath
  45. [20:54] <Naviai> "This is ridiculous"
  46. [20:55] <Lozzeh> " do you even know where you are going? "
  47. [20:55] <Naviai> "It's been a long while"
  48. [20:55] <Lozzeh> " you could at least ask for directions "
  49. [20:56] <Naviai> "Does it /look/ like there's anybody outside?"
  50. [20:57] <Lozzeh> " im lying on my back, i can't do anything but stare "
  51. [20:58] * Naviai continues walking, until he finds a store or something similar
  52. [21:03] <Serket> ...Roll for luck
  53. [21:04] <Naviai> roll 1d20
  54. [21:04] <@`DM> Naviai rolled 1d20 [ 1d20=11 ]{11}
  55. [21:05] <Serket> Your luck is painfully average, and you end up walking for another ten or fifteen minutes before you stride past a store that, for all intents and purposes, appears to be a place where there's a better than even chance you might be able to obtain some sort of healing supplies from.
  56. [21:05] <Serket> .Roll for perception, so I can have a reason to write a more detailed description.
  57. [21:05] <Serket> :V
  58. [21:06] <Naviai> roll 1d20+1
  59. [21:06] <@`DM> Naviai rolled 1d20+1 [ 1d20=7 ]{8}
  60. [21:06] <Naviai> -_-
  61. [21:08] <Serket> The place strikes you as awfully shady. The glass is too fogged up to make out anything on the inside, and the building itself seems to be in varying degrees of disrepair. The only thing that strikes you as particularly telling of what this building may hold is a large, uncharacteristically pristine burgundy-colored cross painted on the door. I can't say red-cross because otherwise I might get sued. Damn copyright laws.
  62. [21:12] * Naviai sighs, and carefully enters the place
  63. [21:12] <Lozzeh> "i hope this isnt some asylum "
  64. [21:21] <Serket> You aren't sure what exactly constitutes "carefully" entering a building. Nonetheless, you do manage to walk in, and the place seems relatively average as far as shadiness levels go. Perhaps the dilapidated outside was just that, an outs- And there's a dead body lying in the corner, propped up to look like it was just sitting against the wall and taking a nap. Covered in blood. The person standing at the counter near the west wall of the building looks at you, glancing towards the body before turning his sight back on you, watching silently.
  65. [21:21] <Serket> -12 points to subtlety.
  66. [21:24] * Naviai freezes
  67. [21:24] <Naviai> "Did you kill that troll?"
  68. [21:25] <Serket> He looks at you, then looks back to the body, and frowns. "No."
  69. [21:25] * Lozzeh whispers to Naviai, "don't worry I got my flintlock on hand, im a good shot"
  70. [21:26] <Naviai> "What happened there then?"
  71. [21:26] * Naviai doesn't reply to Lozzeh
  72. [21:29] <Serket> He nods to the door that you had just walked into, specifically, the medical cross emblazoned on it. "This is a pharmacy. Or a hospital. Or whatever it is we're supposed to be calling it. It's all the same, it's where the sick come to die." He repeated the nodding gesture, except this time, directed towards the body. "He had something particularly nasty. Was vomiting up blood when I came in a few days ago. No-one really wants to touch it to clean it up. So it just stays there."
  73. [21:31] <Naviai> "Riiiiight..."
  74. [21:31] * Naviai looks a bit warily at the troll
  75. [21:32] <Naviai> "Could you fix her up?" I ask, gesturing at the levitating troll behind me
  76. [21:35] <Serket> He sighs, looking a bit disheartened by Naviai's disbelief in his story. "Believe what you want to." He said simply, then looked to Lozzeh. "As long as she doesn't need any actual medicine, I could probably at least stop her from dying in the next week or two."
  77. [21:36] <Serket> "Judging by the looks of it, if you want her to be fully functioning within the next sweep or two, your best bet is to get some sort of prosthetics. But I'm not particularly good at that sort of thing."
  78. [21:36] <Naviai> "It's that bad?"
  79. [21:38] <Serket> "Alternia isn't exactly the capital of medical prowess." He said in a deadpan tone.
  80. [21:38] <Naviai> "Not what I was talking about, but agreed."
  81. [21:39] <Naviai> "I'll let you do your thing then"
  82. [21:40] * Naviai nods to Snakedad to follow the troll
  83. [21:40] <Serket> "Most of us are better at killing than patching others up. It's how we're built, I guess." He shrugged, then stared up at Lozzeh contemplatively for a moment. "If she wants, I could call in a favor with a highblood and get one of the trolls who are actually trained for injuries as bad as this to fix her properly."
