Prologue

Ancient Fey History, [Teleport-Vials], Painkillers, and Rest


"And that's the history behind H's wound?"

Dick's eyes widen.

"I know it's not too nice and why would it be? But as I told you both, yes it is. Almost finished with these bandages. There. That should do it."

I never heard that history before.

[Mother-Nurse] hands Dick two vials.

One will get us to his place. The other will take us back here.

"Those vials are very special. They can be used as often as is necessary, which is good because Hannah will need to come back here daily so I can see how she's healing. Take these too."

She hands Dick painkillers.

"They'll adjust their strength when necessary." "Only one a day?" "Yes, now you both better get going. I have other patients that need my attention."

Dick crunches one of the vials under his foot, after he (ever so carefully) picks me up.

We instantly arrive at his house.

I've got a lot of healing to do so I need my rest.

Dick carefully places me on his couch.

"Sweet dreams H. Call me if you need anything, all right?"

I nod, then fall asleep.

I'm so tired...
