Paloma almost stopped on her way down from the crows nest. Something didn't feel right. Maybe she was just hungry or tired. She continued down, but stopped again after a few feet down. No this wasn't something that was a result of lack of food or sleep but something bigger.

"Something wrong there, luv?" she heard Jack call from below.

Paloma looked down at him but quickly turned back due to the dizziness that was threatening to consume her.

She closed her eyes and tightened her grip on the ropes. She never had trouble on the ropes with height.

Paloma could feel her breath becoming more rapid and shallower. It was like the world was spinning around her. She started to panic, violently shaking.

"Let go off the rope, luv." The voice was so close. She could feel someone prying her fingers from the rope. Paloma could feel herself being carried down in Jack's arm. (he needs to use the other one to get down)

Jack carried her down and placed her down on the deck.

By now the shaking had mostly stopped.

"Pal?"

Paloma tired to open her eyes, but her eyelids felt heavy. She groaned.

"You ok, luv?"

Paloma didn't answer. She was too far into darkness. Jack carried her into her room and set her down on the bed. He didn't know one thing about sickness. Except that it wasn't good out here on the open sea. Frowning her left too see if any of the crew knew anything that might help... and to go get food.

"Be back so" he whispered.
