[Action]

[If anyone wants to stumble upon an old woman, who's been dumped near the edge of town near the forest, they're welcome to it. She's on the ground, seeming to be slightly dazed, and having difficulty sitting up and focusing on her surroundings. She has few visible physical injuries, though from what one can see, her wrists appear to be a

[Jade happened to be emerging from the forest, after some training within it, when he spotted the elderly lady on the ground. She definitely didn't look to be in the best condition.]

...Are you all right, ma'am? This is hardly a safe place for one in your condition.

[holysovereign]

... Hm? [She blinks slightly, turning her head towards the source of the voice. But that starts to hurt, so it's accompanied by a wince. It takes her a moment to form the words head injuries will do that] Ah... no, I don't believe so, dear.

[necromance_this]

[He approaches the woman, now, getting a closer look at her condition. Her wounds don't seem to be grave, and are few in number. But from the nature of her wounds, Jade deduced she had just returned from a kidnapping, so her injuries could definitely go beyond physical.]

Would you require an escort back to the village, Miss?

[holysovereign]

[Again, it takes her a moment to respond. She's fairly dazed and a bit dehydrated, after all, and her voice is on the weak side.]

... what village would that be, dear?

[necromance_this]

Hmm? Ahh, Luceti, of course.

[holysovereign]

[She seems a little puzzled for a moment, before smiling vaguely] Luceti... hmmm. I suppose it does have a ring to it.

[necromance_this]

[That was strange... This woman seemed familiar, like he had at least seen her through the journals, yet she didn't know Luceti. But she didn't appear to be a New Feather...]

Yes, I suppose it does. It's a quaint little village.

[holysovereign]

Quaint... yes, that does seem a fitting word for that name. [She blinks a little, and moves her head slightly again. Perhaps she should try sitting up.]

... ooh. [Or not, as that seems to be rather painful]

[necromance_this]

...Perhaps it would be more prudent to call for a healer to come to this location, first.

[holysovereign]

[Again, that slightly delayed reaction]

Hm? That sounds nice, dear...

[necromance_this]

Do you happen to know your name, miss? Or perhaps you have a journal on you?

[holysovereign]

Hmm... [This takes her a few moments]

No, I don't believe I do... to both questions. It's very peculiar.

[necromance_this]

Hmm... Well, this is troubling. Alright... If you'll give me a moment.

[holysovereign]

Hm? Of course, dear...
