Felix Chapter two.
The Vault sanctum was a large building with many windows to lighten up the cave. The main room was painted a light purple colour, with a wooden floor and pretty carpets all around. The Great Healer's desk was up an one end of the scantum, while the door was at the other. Besides the main room, with many benches and stools and of course the windows, there were several rooms in the back used for treatment of the ill who visit. Those rooms had no windows, and were very small, and bland.
Jenna found those rooms stuffy, dark, and cramped. She was content to sit in the main room with Piers until summoned. As it was, the golden sun was setting through the windows, washing the sanctum in a yellow-orange hue, creating a glow around the objects.
Pretty as it was, Jenna hated sanctums with everything she could muster. Too many times over the course of the journey had she woken up in a sanctum bed with Felix sleeping beside her, half on the bed, half sitting on the floor. Now, it seemed, that it was the opposite. Felix would wake up to see her.she hoped. The sanctums stunk as well. The putrid smell of potions, tonics, ancient spells, blood, poison and anthestesia sickened her. Jenna had been sick on more than one occasion simply by stepping in a sanctum. Sheba teased her about having a sensitive nose, and when Felix blanched once, Piers said it ran in the family. He recieved a black eye, and had to walk around bow-legged, singing soprano for the rest of the day. Safe to say, he would never have children. Jenna was only tolerating the sanctum because her brother was in one of those stuffy rooms, possibly dying, and she was outside crying.
At least Piers would comfort her.
Piers was praying; or so it seemed. His eyes were closed, one of his hand over his heart, the other clasped with Jenna's. He was muttering quietly something in Lemurian and damned if Jenna could figure out what he was saying. Piers stopped talking, opened his eyes and looked at her. Jenna looked back, and almost instantly began sobbing into his chest. Piers wapped both arms around her in an attempt to calm her weeping.
Jenna had always gotten on well with Piers. It seemed that he could make anyone love him at any given time. Jenna always slept well when Piers was on watch. He was a reliable man; stern but reliable. Piers always stood strong in tough situations, be it a long cave or a losing battle against a 3 headed psyco dragon. When Felix was nto around, Jenna always looked to Piers to act as big brother to her. Now seemed to be one of those times.
"Shh, don't worry Jen'. Felix will be alright. You know that!" Piers said, in a mildly accented voice that most women found VERY attractive.
"B-but I l-love him s-s-so much! I-I-I c-couldn't last for-forever without him!"
"Shh. I know. He'll be alright."
It was, at this point that Mia came out from the back of the sanctum, looking a bit frazzeled. She composed herself quickly, and shuffled over to Jenna.
Jenna and Mia were never on the best of terms. Perhaps it was the ill-fated meetings, or the fact that Mia was better at healing than she was, but they had never gotten along very well. It's not that they were at each others throats, in fact, they were quite civil towards each other, but they never got farther than a first name basis and it was rare that they did not fight over authority during battle. Mia disliked Jenna, and Jenna HATED Mia. Now, however it seemed like Mia put their past away, and approached Jenna as a friend.
"Jen' are you alright?" Mia asked in her mellow little voice. Jenna shook her head. Mia sighed, "Felix.is stable at least. Whatever he's sick with, neither the Healer or I could detect, but mabye you can." She said, rubbing Jenna's back gently. "Alright." Jenna mumbled weakly. Mia stoodu up and offered Jenna a hand. She took it, and followed Mia into the dark, stuffy room.
