Log: Curing the T'Rages
From FiranMUX
Ellish: Northern Wall, West Mess Hall
Laurelia enters followed by 10 Bear clan guards.
Talikos rights an empty cot, after allowing Tezzer to bind wounds. *heave* *thud*
Arinsana comes in from the south.
Arinsana has arrived.
Tezzer goes after his patients with a grim thoroughness, bandaging with a will. "Every bit that's bitten gets bandaged. Rest if you can. I - or, later, most likely one of the other healers - will tend to you once every few hours." *Firan*
Dalinuel moves his head around, wide-eyed but blank stared. He sucks at his gag, praying perhaps that a droplet of blood has fallen on it.
Talikos looked at you.
Tezzer tends to Ladonna's right bicep.
Davonos has clearly had a number of bites, with at least two that managed to penetrate the skin at his neck and bicep. Crazed beasts really do not like his arms. Downtrodden and sweaty, he drops down onto an unoccupied cot, and sets to getting himself out of his armor so that he can reach back for the quilt he dropped earlier.
Jesika comes in from the south.
Jesika has arrived.
Marsalos enters followed by 4 Eagle clan guards.
Tezzer bandages Ladonna's right forearm with 38 bandages.
"Do any of you know where Sabria took all the dogs? Where her tent was?" asks Jesika. She's got a cut, but not a bite, on her forehead.
Laurelia moves into the room after she's heard word that all these hounds are dead. She does still have those pesky guards after all and they wouldn't let her in until they were dead. "Commander Rinzik, I will start the process on him now." her words are crisp and she moves towards the man. *Firan*
Arinsana, having returned, shakes her head. "No idea," she tells Jesika. *Firan*
Alessandro clears his throat. "The tent to the south of the gatehouse. In the first tent." *Firan*
Talikos looks up at Laurelia, watching. "What's the cure, Lady Laurelia?" *Firan*
Ladonna stays rather close to Omiak, whispering quietly to him.
"Oh I checked it. Empty. I think all the dogs are dead, yeah." Jesika nods. "Do you want me to uh, help? Or just get the hell out of here?" asks Jesika, politely enough.
Ladonna frowns delicately and looks at her fingers. "Oh, gods, Sir Omiak, the limbo is ...going to be torture." *Firan*
Laurelia gestures to the cut on her upper arm at Talikos's question. "There must be a cut upon their arm and on my arm and then we bind them together. The cure is in the blood, I'm not sure what exactly about it though. Mother Karana's blood did not work as mine did on the children." *Firan*
Talikos blinks at Laurelia, then looks down at his myriad cuts.
Karana writhes on the cot, sobbing. "The blood... the blood... cannot let you find the blue green eyes... Lupos... information... so thirsty... poison... poisoned... long black hair... cannot let you... poisoning them... you poisoned daddy... mama... poison... poison..." Her ramblings continue to degenrate after the pack of wild dogs. *Firan*
Omiak listens to Ladonna and takes her hand. "Hang in there." He then looks as he hears Laurelia talking. "So there is a cure?" *Firan*
Ladonna bites her bottom lip and holds Omiak tightly. Hoooold.
Tezzer bandages Sabria's waist with 23 bandages.
Arinsana's shoulder sink as she makes her way over to another cot to allow Tezzer to bandage her up. "I... I think I manage to miss getting bitten in at least one spot," she manages for a mild injection of humor; her smile is weak, however, as she looks across to Karana again, then Laurelia. *Firan*
Davonos frowns even harder at Karana's ramblings, and pulls his quilt more closely about himself. He is grumpy. "Would it be possible to gag her as the other one was?" His head tilts to indicate Dalinuel. *Firan*
Alessandro is not pleased. "Oh Lord Zutiv, I have to drink blood to cure me of this disease? I am... not yet sick enough that it is at all appealing." *Firan*
Ladonna glances at Karana a few times. She whispers to Omiak.
"Dad, hush up," Arinsana shushes from where she now sits.
Jesika sneaks out, not being instructed to do anything else.
Jesika has left.
Jesika heads south.
Tezzer pats Arinsana's hand approvingly. "There's the spirit!" Alessandro gets a look. "Not drink. Share. You have to share blood through a cut. And we'll be finding out the hard way if Lord Talikos or myself have whatever it is that grants one immunity. Lord Udettos very well may have it, as he has not yet shown any signs of the disease." *Firan*
Talikos mumbles. "Good thing Nilara isn't here. She'd be climbing a wall inside ten minutes, if you need noble blood." Oh SNAP. *Firan*
Alessandro smirks. "Lord Udettos was bitten, spit on, and scratched. So if he doesn't have it, it will certainly be proved true." *Firan*
Laurelia nods to Omiak. "There is, I have treated two children with the disease and they are now nearly back to normal, their fevers broken and their rages gone." she gestures towards Rinzik, who is unconscious. "I will begin with him as he is the most serious of them all." Alessandro's words are heard. "There is no drinking Sir Alessandro, it is a binding of cut to cut to mix the blood." and she moves towards Rinzik now to make sure he is truly out. "As long as he stays unconscious this will be easier than it was before. It's avoiding the spit that is important, that is how Mother Karana was infected." *Firan*
Dalinuel struggles to get his head around as he's being bandaged. All that lovely, warm, thirst-quenching blood, quarts of it just out of reach.
Ladonna licks her lips slightly and bites the upper one. She stares at Laurelia for a while and glances down at Karana. Slowly, Ladonna breaks from the group and whispers something to Laurelia.
Talikos wonders. "Should I try it on Dalinuel?" he asks Laurelia. "I got plenty to spare," he notes, wry. *Firan*
Omiak nods to Laurelia. "I will help with whatever you need." He says simply. "If need be we can cover them with my robe and hold an arm from each." *Firan*
Davonos turns to watch Laurelia once she speaks, apparently under the impression that Rinzik is going to hop right up and be entirely normal instantaneously after the exchange. Or just morbidly curious.
Karana moans softly, trying to move, trying to be free. "Thirsty... I need water... tea... poison... need to drink... drink." She coughs a little bit. "She will have something to drink... the lady with the blue green eyes... blue green... Lupos will know, will give me something to drink. To drink... to drink..." *Firan*
Tezzer sighs, moving to dribble tea down Karana's throat. Now that battle is over and everyone but him is bandaged he's a bit green.
Laurelia leans to listen to Ladonna and is quiet a moment before she nods. "Yes, you may try. I am not sure exactly what it is but so far it has only been women that have enacted a cure." a nod to Talikos as well. "You work on Dalinuel, you will need more help than I with Rinzik as the latter is likely not to wake during the course of the treatment." so far gone as he is. Karana is gestured to and the Ista Aldrik sends a look towards Ladonna "You may work with Mother Karana, she is not so far advanced as the two men but it would be best if we could get this started. It begins to show within a few hours if they will get better, they will be able to swallow again. However, if anyone does not show signs of improvement... I will personally see to them until someone else is found with the cure." *Firan*
Ladonna inclines her head in Laurelia's direction and says quietly, "Discretion, my lady." The young woman moves toward Karana's cot and silently reaches for her dagger. She slices her wrist open; the cut is deep, deep enough to elicit a wince of pain from Ladonna. "Mother, please pardon me," Ladonna whispers gently. She takes Karana's bound hands, slices her wrist as well, and presses her pale skin to the Firanosian's. *Firan*
Arinsana pays someone to deliver a message.
Talikos looks pale all of a sudden, wobbling a bit. He stands, then sits, heavily. "Mhmph. Alright. Alright," he nods to himself, then gets up to head over to Dalinuel. Wasn't he nipped in the dog attack? *Firan*
Karana watches Ladonna, whimpering. "Not the poison... the poison..." She trembles and hisses at the pain, but really? She takes it like a trooper. An insane rambling trooper, but a trooper. *Firan*
Omiak walks over near Ladonna slowly. He waits silently to hear if he is needed to help in any way.
Ladonna is positively shaking. She holds Karana's hands to hers tightly, shivering more with every passing second. "I.. don't think it's the poison," the actress whispers hopefully. "Try to remain calm, please..." Ladonna glances up at Omiak, brows creased with worry. With fright. *Firan*
Dalinuel stares glassily as people move in his direction. With less fighting going on he's less frenzied...but the smell...the cool coppery scent of blood. He sucks at his gag and chokes a bit.
Omiak reachs over to place a hand on her shoulder. He watchs what she does. Silent support.
Talikos asks Tezzer, "You got a knife? I suppose we should slice his leg or something well away from his face." *Firan*
Laurelia choses another place to open her skin this time, taking a sharp knife and slicing a thin cut on the inside of her forearm. Taking Rinzik's forearm she does the same to the unconscious man. Taking a strip of bandage she presses her forearm to his and then binds the arms together and waits. There's a cool patience to Laurelia's movements as if she trusts in the cure that has been found. "Make sure to stay clear of the spittle!" is called out in a sharp tone to the others that are trying the cure on Dalinuel and Karana. *Firan*
Alessandro seems to be generally calm, stoically waiting for madness to creep over him. Alessandro has never been crazy before, or in a rage...so perhaps it will be an interestinf experience. If he lives." *Firan*
Omiak looks around. "If you have a way to cover there face when you do it, i would suggest doing it. It will keep them from spitting on till you are done." *Firan*
Davonos's booted feet swing quietly under the end of his cot as he watches the blood letting, and various reactions to it. Silent in his observation, he looks faintly distracted, but otherwise somber. Normal.
Argin comes in from the south.
Argin has arrived.
Argin enters followed by 7 republic guards.
Arinsana sits very still, listening and watching. Like the old pilot, she's keeping a generally calm expression throughout all this, though there's a slight crease to her forehead.
Karana shuts her eyes, trying not to thrash. "So thirsty..." She even eyes the blood mingling, like she'd drink it. She still has a general look of panic about her. "Lupos has something to drink. The blue green eyed lady does. THey'll have something to drink. I know it. No poison." *Firan*
Argin marches in from the gate house, looking quite annoyed. "Someone tell me what the hell is going on here," he shouts at no one in particular. *Firan*
Alessandro is strapped to a bed, laying down. He looks over to Argin, and sighs. "The dogs went mad, and somehow broke out, Prince General. They were killed, but not without biting a lot of us." *Firan*
"The dogs," says Davonos, voice low. "They went mad and charged the barracks, and the mess hall." He lifts one hand in vague indication of all the freshly bandaged people present. "It didn't go very well."
Omiak looks over to Argin. "Infected Dogs, sir." He says simply. "A pack of them got in and bit the hell out of people." He points to Laurelia. "She is trying a cure, the use of noble blood, to try and cure the infected." *Firan*
"Sir," Davonos tacks on a little hastily, and his air of distraction snaps away.
The news does not make Argin look any less annoyed. "I specifically remember giving orders that if the disease showed itself to be communicable, the dogs were to be rounded up and killed." He glances at Laurelia for a moment. "Who is in charge of the healing efforts now that Captain Karana is clearly infected?"
Dalinuel is still secured securely, tied and gagged. His breath rasps hoarsly around the bandage in his mouth.
Albel comes in from the south.
Albel has arrived.
Omiak shrugs as Argin does his thing and he squeezes Ladonna's shoulder at the momment. Seemingly used to this kind of treatment.
Alessandro clears his throat. "Centurion Tezzer has been in charge of the Healers, Prince General. And the message I got said that if the dogs showed any sign of infection to kill them." *Firan*
Coming in from the east, Albel is looking almightly pissed, and as he sees the corpses he stills, and his face goes pale, his eyes go to slits. He watches the corpses for a long time, staring, and then his eyes flit to Alessandro at the words he gives, and his fingers clench up at his sides, yet he doesn't move.
Laurelia leaves her arm bound to Rinzik for a longer amount of time than she did for the children, he is larger after all. After that amount of time is passed she unbinds her arm from Rinzik's and uses a clean bandage to stem the flow of blood from her own arm. Argin's voice is heard but with Alessandro's speaking up as to who's in charge she merely nods. Her attention centered more on the efforts of the others that are attempting to heal those already showing signs of the disease.
Karish comes in from the south.
Karish has arrived.
Karish comes in wielding a Obsidian Mirror Black Iron Long Sword!
"Yes, well they've definitely shown signs of infection now, haven't they?" Argin sounds more than a little testy, and Albel's arrival does little to pacify him. "You!" He points at the unfortunate sentry. "You are the one that wanted to study the damned things. Alot of good that did, I see. Half of the army is now infected with this gods forsaken disease." He grumbles for a few moments before turning toward Tezzer. "Centurion, make sure those sick children are not allowed anywhere near this outpost." He looks at Laurelia once more, then. "Lady Laurelia, Dame Sarina is currently confined to the men's quarters of the Vasaloo estate. Go there and try your treatment on her before you move on to anyone else." He points at Rinzik. "If he shows signs of improvement, then we will have other true blooded nobles aid you."
Karish comes racing in from the south, with Lord Emil over his shoulder. A few arrows are sticking out of Karish, and his armor looks scuffed up. "We need a..." Oh. Look. Chaos. *Firan*
Udettos rubs his eyes and awakens.
Tezzer quietly waves Karish over. If the man can see him through everyone, that is.
Karish hops over towards the corpses near Tezzer. "M'Lord, are you cleared to work with the seriously injured?" *Firan*
Unconscious Emil has arrived.
Karish drops the Emil.
Talikos pauses standing over Dalinuel. Oh. Well, Argin gave an order. "Guess you'll have to wait, Dal," he sighs at the frothing priest, and slumps down against a wall. *Firan*
Udettos yawns as he wakes up and looks aroumd. "what's going on?" *Firan*
Getting pointed at gets Albels eyes straight on Argin, and his eyes are fiery. He grinds his teeth and glares back at the Prince General, gritting his teeth he tenses up as if he has a really hard time controlling himself currently. Eyeing the dead dogs he spots Fayth and his eyes go dull, before he looks back to Argin, "And I never got to -sir-. If they were kept chain up, I could have had them cured, -sir-." he says bitterly, his eyes hurling blame at the Prince General.
Laurelia rises from Rinzik's side. "The children are all but cured Prince General, their rages and fevers are broke, they can speak and drink normally now." the orders of where to go next are not questioned. Instead she turns to Tezzer "Please have one of your healers keep a close eye on Commander Rinzik, I will be back in a few hours to check on him and do the treatment again. It requires more than one mixing of the blood." and with that she turns on her heel with a respectful nod towards Argin and heads towards the Vasaloo estate. "Of course." being her only voiced response to the command. *Firan*
Unconscious Emil has a godly wound on his shoulder, as well as other assorted scrapes and cuts, his helmet dented where a spear conked him unconscious.
Tezzer checks Emil over briskly. "I can bandage him, but he'll need to rest before we can do anything more for him. At this stage, with that sort of hole in his shoulder, even the legendary healers won't do more." *Firan*
Davonos's mouth falls open slightly at Albel, then clamps shut again, so that he can look very interested in the unconscious form of Emil.
Omiak just keeps watch over Ladonna and Karana to make sure they are okay.
Karana trembles and starts to lose consciousness, whether it be from blood loss or madness, she murmurs softly about blue green eyes, Lupos and poisons... she passes out, unaware of everything about her.
Ladonna glances in Laurelia's direction and follows her lead. After a good while, when Ladonna herself has begun to go a little pale, she pulls her hand away from Karana and shifts backwards, nearly falling into Omiak's arms. She stares down at the woman on the cot and, tired, swallows hard. Her wrist continues to bleed for a while; eventually, however, Ladonna figures she should probably bandage herself. And so, she does. Karana first, with some wayward bandage or other, and then her own. Clean wounds, they should heal fine. The young woman stands up and begins to say, "I ...don't know if i--" But Karish's arrival stops her. She stares at the centurion in horror. "Are ..you hurt?" she asks in a near whisper that is surely overrun by the din of the room. Albel's evident displeasure is met with terror. She looks at Karish. Albel. And then Omiak. She quickly sits back down, somewhere other than Karana's cot. *Firan*
Karana drifts off to sleep.
Udettos shakes his head when nobody reply to him so he drinks some tea from a small bottle that was place near him as he was order too, he glups the tea down without any pain.
Karish glances in Albel's direction. One brow arches, and he points at the man. "Silence, Albel! Please, Prince Argin, please forgive my brother-in-law's fury, he's very attached to these hounds. If you'll allow me, please, I'll take him outside and beat him thoroughly myself for his insolence." He glances at Ladonna and nods carelessly. "I'm perfectly fine, yes." *Firan*
Alessandro says "I....am still very thirsty..." *Firan*
Emma comes in from the south.
Emma has arrived.
Tezzer nods and dribbles more tea down Alessandro's throat. He's not going to get in the middle of the arguments about the dogs.
Argin is clearly not having a good day, and his annoyance is quickly growing into rage. Albel's quippy response and obvious accusations are all the prince needs in order to find a target for his anger. The prince spins on his heel and marches across the hall toward the truly unfortunate sentry. Then, he lifts an arm and backhands him directly across the mouth. He uses the hand that has a ring on it. "Take that tone with me again, Sentry, and I'll chain /you/ to the wall and beat you like a dog!" Thankfully, Karish is running in with Emil at this point. Argin looks to Tezzer. "Find a healer to attend Lord Emil!" *Firan*
Argin hauls off and slaps Albel right across the face!
Dalinuel sucks at his gag frantically, pants and chokes on the odd drop of saliva he's able to drain from it.
Emma comes stumbling in, her eyes wild and her body bloodied. "Where is Emil?" she bellows hoarsely, dark eyes glancing frantically about *Firan*
OOC: At this point Laurelia leaves the room to tend to Sarina as ordered.
