He's Alive?!Are You Sure??
RW Abbey: Infirmary Recovery
This comfortable but spartan room has several small alcoves lining the wall. Infirmary bunks with resting and recovering patients lie in these alcoves, each cordoned off with a gossamer drapery of linen for privacy. The room is lit with oil lamps and the pleasing warmth of a small hearth fire. This room is kept quiet, except for the occasional snore, hacking cough or sniffle of its sleeping infirmary occupants.

Exits: [Back] to the Main Infirmary
The infirmary is quiet and the hare has stared at the door the past hour and at a certain sleeping mouse maid on the next cot who finally is getting some rest and this is one thing the hare rather not wake her up for as he stands and heads to the doorway.
Zork walks in slowly, his cane in paw and about bumps into the hare.
Angelo sighs and shakes his head, "No good being here chap."
Zork shakes his head "And why be that, he were me friend..." He walks over to Leon and ignores the hare placing a paw on Leon's arm and frowns as he stands there quietly "I tried..." He mutters.
The hare just watches, he is unsure what to do and he checked signs and double checked and there was no difference he could find that was good, "We should go" He says quietly, "And take the lass to her own place, sleep better there"
Zork doesn't answer, when he does he is silent at first and blinks and shakes his head as if maybe seeing things "Must be...tried" But something seems to get to him, something isn’t totally correct here as he glances around the room for something, anything remembering a thin bit of flat metal his apprentice has he holds it by the mouse, he isn’t sure why.
Angelo looks at the badger oddly, "Wot ya doin' chap?" He sighs "Will ya just..." He walks over and eyes widen a little and he is suddenly shoving the badger out of the way and digging in a healers pouch he has, some sort of vial he has some liquid in, rare and could be bad if used wrong but sometimes a small little drop of it can oddly help, he mutters something and finds a couple herbs he smashes up and oddly uses a flint to light them, sort of like smotering herbs and waves it close to his friend. Saying nothing and it be unwise to go too close to the hare right now.
Zork glares and barely manages to not cuss at the hare as he tumbles backwards, he stands and rubs his side, "Ya needs ta watch it bunny..." He tilts his head and watches the hare and frowns, "Wot ya doin'..whats goin on?"
Flicktail is carried in by his large otter friends and put in a bed next to Leon, as close as is allowed .
Angelo ignores the badger, that’s right ignores the badger, and the fox will not be allowed very close at all right now as he states "Get him..further away.." He waves the smotering herbs close to his friend and seems to watch and mutter something and check for a pulse over and over again, he looks around quickly finding some pillows and oddly placing them behind the mouse's back, rubbing his back and chest slightly, tilting the bit of metal again looking at it, well something is going on as he lays that down still tending and checking “Come on..."
Zork frowns, he looks at Flicktail, "Flicky..this not a good time ta be ere'"
Flicktail says, "Where else should the Champion be, then by his friends to lend them his strength as we can"
The hare sends the fox a glare finally "Ya should leave...or" He jumps at a gasp and weak cough, those smotering herbs did something and that ever the dropper had, the hare's head snaps back to look at the mouse who shivers, he doesn't open his eyes but he is moving, yes shivering but its movement and he didn’t have it before.
Zork folds his arms over his chest "Me and Flicky are..." He stops talking and looks in the direction the hare is.
Flicktail says, "what he's trying to say is only The Father Abbot outranks me, and I command all the Guard, so good luck getting us away from our friend...we will not hinder...sides my foot paw is ...." His eyes widen "Zork....Martin be here........."
Angelo keeps an eye on his friend, he raises an eyebrow as no other beast is here just the fox, Leon and the badger, he speaks quietly, "Leon...?"
Zork says, "I don’t think Martin tis ere' Flicky...Leon made a noise..I think""
Flicktail says, "No Zork...it IS Martin....I.. I know his feel..like when he brought me the sword.....it's Him I be SURE"
The hare Angelo blinks as he turns to Flicktail "Who's..Martin?" Another couple gasps and a weak cough from Leon is heard and the hare starts to try and get him in a half sitting position to help him breath better and checks his paw and pulse, his pulse is weak but a little better and his breathing is...well steady, not perfect but he's breathing.
Zork looks like he wants to walk over towards Leon, he glances at Flicktail "But I don't see im..." He blinks," Somethin' earlier told me ta...I had dis bit of metal and some reason had de urge ta see if any like..moisture got on it when was close ta Leon’s mouth, but didn’t get good look before Mr. Hare here shoves me away!" Ok the last word was loud.
Angelo glares " It was important and yes there was a faint fog and I needed..needed to use something it..it be dangerous in healthy beasts as speeds up the heart but in this case..extreme cases only a tiny tiny drop of it can save one, just a drop no more...maybe less"
Flicktail nods to Zork "Do not be too angry Zork, I think that Martin might have brought this hare" He looks at the hare "Martin is our patron protector for ages gone...It is said he greets beasts at the Dark Forest....or bring them back if it not their time... “
Zork sits down, he has to ask "Is Leon...?" He doesn't dare finish the question.
The hare looks over the mouse and checks his pulse, he still has whatever the smotering herbs are that Leon slowly breaths in and out and weakly coughs shivering slightly, he remains the same but no worse at least. The hare answers, "He..lives, I am unsure how I..I could of sworn he was dead an hour ago..maybe a mistake of taking the pulse...don’t know, could of been so..so faint and hard to read...weak now but compared to before...stronger"
Flicktail says “ Looks like Martin brought im back”
Angelo shakes his head "That is impossible..my herbs bally well did"
Zork walks over "Or maybe just wouldn’t let him enter de gates"
Angelo sighs, he decides to not worry on it as he backs up to let them see their friend "I..if a healer is needed call me or...someone I need to speak to someone" He heads out leaving them alone.
Flicktail says, "well it is a happy time after all"
Leon doesn’t seem to know they are in the room as he lies on the cot, every so often a shiver.
Zork looks down at Leon still very worried, "I hope he lives he is needed ere'"
Flicktail says, "you should put a blanket on him"
Zork nods "But he still be...bad shape Flicky, he could still..." He gets a blanket and if gets the ok will use it to keep Leon warm.
Leon stirs slightly but no signs of waking up and the cover helps a little. He still has a fever but it seems to be finally dropping now ever so slowly.
Flicktail shakes his head "Martin were here, if he were going to take Leon he would have done it”
Zork nods "Ya be right..Leon still be needed 'ere...but things still gonna be different he..he will need his friends when he wakes up"
Leon will not be waking tonight, but he could well be on his way to waking from the faint soon as he moves his arm slightly, his breathing and heartbeat a little low but not dangerous so like before.
Flicktail says, "I will stay here tonight Zoker, near Leon, with me foot paw I should be here anyway"
Zork nods "But ya not be a healer...I could find Rayen or Dora's grandma as well, but staying be ok most likely in case Leon wakes and would want to see a friend"
Flicktail says, "Rayen will be ere for me Zork, and I can summon anyone if anything happens..I want My face to be the first Leon see when he wakes"
Zork says, "Well if your ere'..ya know Dorarose will be here as well"
Leon moves faintly again and shivers a little giving a weak cough
Flicktail says, "hmmm I would let my fox fur keep Him warm if I thought it wouldn't hurt...Zork see if they have a bed warmer"
Zork says, "I do not think they do, sides don't want him too hot, he has a fever still Flicky"
Leon does still have a fever and for now the one blanket should be fine as a closer inspection doesn’t show he is cold, but he does shiver still off and on.
Zork says, "I just hope he conditions showing improve...he..he was dying Flicktail and he still looks so weak and faint"
Flicktail says, "I know Zork but I feel in me bones Martin has brought didn't want him to go"
Zork nods "Let's hope so..I rather not bury a friend"
Leon stays in his now semi-faint, every so often a shiver as the fever slowly goes down and slowly, ever so slowly his pulse rate will improve and his breathing become better...There is Hope.
