 When Donovan re-entered the room he now wore the cream coloured kilt-like wrap, sandles, and a sleeveless tunic that he often favored over anything else. For a man well into his 50's he was in excellent shape. Broad shoulders and well muscled arms and legs spoke of many years of physical work, work that he still must pride himself in. However he also had many scars that bespoke of many vicious battles, it was easy to see that although he was a Lord his life had not been an easy one spent lounging around. "If you are ready then Healer Mali." he said offering her his arm. On their way out he stopped to leave one last minute order with Rashid. "Please make sure some lemon tea and honey cakes get taken down to the children sometime while we are gone. I don't want any of them to get heat sickness." The silent servant nodded his agreement and waved them off. |

"I was asking if Kaelin was going to right way not if you were." Tash muttered as she followed them to the waterfall. She found the story about the dog more then a little disturbing.

Kevyn laughed, "well considering your both following us then I should hope he is."

"You just think he following." Tash said as Kaelin reappeared in view not that far in front of them and jumped into the water behind Quinn. "So is it you or me that is the rotten egg?"

"Hmmm. Good question, why don't we find out." Kevyn said starting to run as she finished her sentence.

On their way out he stopped to leave one last minute order with Rashid. "Please make sure some lemon tea and honey cakes get taken down to the children sometime while we are gone. I don't want any of them to get heat sickness." The silent servant nodded his agreement and waved them off. As they walked the short distance Donovan pointed out a few of the local landmarks and the road to the nearby village, saying that the local apothicary was fully stocked with anything imaginable should she need anything, all expenses covered of course. "Here we are." Donovan finally stated as they approached a medium sized cottage type house with two men playing a tile game out front. As they came with the fenced area the two men suddenly jumped up and bowed. Donovan, again speaking in the local tounge, introduced Mali then dismissed them. They replied in kind and bowed to Mali as well before returning to their game. "If you please." He said holding open the front door. |

Mali stepped into the room, looking around the room Mali already started going through the list of what would need to be done. Starting with a good cleaning, her kind of cleaning. Stepping to the side, Mali waited for Donovan to enter and introduce her to the boy.

Tash set her bag down then took after Kevyn, reaching the edge of the pool, Tash dove in instead of a cannonball, like the boy's were doing. Surfacing a little ways a way, Tash swam back over to where the others were.

Donovan entered right behind Mali and closed the door, "This way." HE said leading her into a small bedroom off to the side. "Lord Dony. Is that you?" A young, weak, voice said from the bed. The boy was not much older then Donovan's twins but his body had sank everything it had into fighting whatever it was that ravaged his body, giving him a skeletal look and making him extremely weak. "Yes My Prince and I have brought the Out-World Healer with me." Donovan said approaching the bed and smoothing the princes hair back from his face. "Good. I wish to see this healer that you all seem to think can help me." The prince ordered, coughing up a bit of blood. Donovan wiped the blood from the Princes chin, "Of course My Prince." he beckoned Mali closer, "Healer Mali this is our King's only heir, The Prince Eris-an. My Prince this is the Healer Mali." The boy look Mali right in the face. "A pleasure Healer Mali. Please forgive my rudeness in not offering you a more formal greeting but as you can see..." he weakly gestured to his body, "I seem to be a little incapacitated at the moment." his body suddenly started jerking with the force of his coughs. Donovan lifted him a way, holding the cloth infront of his face, so he wouldn't drown in the blood coming up. Once the fit was over the elder man lay the child back down. |

Mali stood silently near by; closely watching the boy as he had a spasm. She had seen something similar to this before, Mali hoped that this wasn't what she thought it was. "Your highness," Mali returned the greeting once the boy had regained his composure. "Could you tell me how long you have the symptoms and what they are?" Mali quietly asked, there was more to the question then just the answer. It would give her an idea of how ill he was and how ill he thought he was.

As Tash swam back towards them, Kaelin gloated "Naa your a rotten egg." Climbing onto the edge of the small pool, Kaelin proudly declared "I'm the king of the castle and your all dirty rascals. And you can't get me off."

"Oh yeah?" Tash said with a wicked grin of her own. He just never learned, she thought as she grabbed the back of his knee and pulled. Once he was on his butt, Tash grabbed one of his ankles and started to pull. "Give me a hand will ya?" she called to Kevyn, fully expecting Quinn to help Kaelin out.

Sure enough Quinn did exactly as Tash had predicted, jumping up beside Kaeling and trying to help him regain his footing.

Mali quietly asked, there was more to the question then just the answer. It would give her an idea of how ill he was and how ill he thought he was. "I'm not sure how long exactly but I think it started about a year ago, on and off. First I was just a tad under the weather, lightly coughing with mild fevers, then it grew from there. I really don't remember much since then." he said fighting for breath. Donovan told what he knew. "By the time he came here, about four months or so ago, his symptoms were a very harsh cough and extreme changes in temprature ranging from ice cold to so hot we had to bath him in cool water to keep him from going into convusions. He has been able to keep only the smallest amounts of food down, though we have been able to keep large amounts of water and tea in him." He explained. "Our healers gave him some medications that seemed to help for short times but it always got worse." Donovan gestured to the desk, "You'll find all their notes in there." He tucked the now sleeping prince back into bed. "Finally when his body started rejecting the medications and the blood started coming when he coughed, they decided to give up." Donovan seemed angry now, "They just walked away and left him to die... a child..." He took a deep breath, "Anyway it was at that time I fought for permission to bring in a healer from off world. They found me you." He finished, waiting for Mali's reaction. |
