MamaBearJade 2090 Share Posted February 9, 2015 The hot summer sun was high over head. Beads of sweat rolled down the young druid's face as she harvested her crops. Her curved ears twitched as she looked over and spotted her fiance bounding towards her. "Do you need help petal?" Zack would ask. The druid smiled and bowed her head, exhaustion written all over her young features. "T-that would be much appreciated love." she replied. Her ears drooped as his features changed from happiness to concern. "Don't work too hard Petal." He said before pecking her on the cheek. Lilliana smiled as he went to till the soil and plant seeds while she harvested. The sun rose higher in the sky and by noon she felt dizzy. "Z-za...." Her voice weak as she fell backwards into the wheat, her body overheated and over used. Zack turned towards the sound. "Petal? Are you sure y-" His voice caught in his throat as he saw her passed out in the field. His palms sweating as he raced to her side. Fear etched over his skin as he noticed the bandage usually on her left arm was once more stained with her blood. Kha. He cursed the creature that had clawed her. He picked her up and took her back inside their home and out of the summer heat. With little hesitation he carried her up to their room and began to change the bandage. Bile rose in his throat at the sight. The three deep claw marks had reopened and were festering. They were red and putrid. He knew Lilliana was pushing herself more as of late, hardly resting. She would get up early just before the sun rose, and worked late until well after the sun had set. He would fish and she would spend her short times from the field cooking it. Not once did she share with him why she worked so much harder. She would leave with her cart weekly to fill the road chests and make sure travellers were well fed. She would leave some for the high elves despite how they treated her. She would even supply the wood elves. Yet there were others she fed out of fear for her family. Working herself even harder than normal, she forced herself to make extra food to deliver to the Kha every other elven day. Those who saw her knew she was taxing herself. She struggled to balance her farm with her two adopted daughters Annabelle and Bariel. Now Zack knew. Zack knew she was too weak to leave the bed. Illness and exhaustion taxed her body immensely. She would be unable to deliver food and until her body could recover, she was bed ridden. Day and night he would sit by her bed. Occasionally friends and family would come to visit, but only he was constant. OOC I will be out of state for four days to attend a class for work. I will be unable to fill the food chests daily. I don't know if anyone from my farm will fill them for me. This is an Rp reason as to why Lilly is not around. I may poke my head in game at the hotel but most of the time will be spent working or driving. I am open to forum RP here if you wish to still interact with her. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelu / Rel (Combustionary) 1540 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Seeing the food chest empty, Chancellor Ac'Aelu Corval is filled with a sense of dread. He goes to meet with the rest of the government and calls a state of national emergency. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readicti 902 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Yaehahn wanders over to the food chests and is surprised by the empty chests. "Wonder if the people filling them is okay." She mumbles to herself. "I'll check on the farm later to see..." ((With my main source of food gone, I wish you a safe journey. See you when you get back.)) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhDeerLord 673 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Dwyn brushes his hands off of water, drying them before getting to work rolling dough for bread. Another duty the mali'ame has taken up, he quietly thanks Lilliana for supplementing their hay bale supply just incase, during her absence. He wishes her well, and if this wasn't a OOC break he'd have sent over Quavi to make her all better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
