I had spend the night with the guys because I thought DQueene needed to discuss important matters with kiya and the others AND because I needed to discuss our practical problems with the guys concerning the sled.
yet when I looked at her from time to time she seemed to be OR ignoring me OR looking mad at me. What did I do wrong... *sigh* Women, who will ever understand them??
Then she stood up to, went to the cart and studied the barrels I had hardly drunk from because it tasted pretty weird. Then she started laughing very hard and when she could control herself again she told us what she had found out.
YUCK!! I jumped up, spit out as much as I could and grabbed some meat to get the taste out..
"Good old dwarven ale eeey Womble" I said with a furious/teasing look in my eyes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Then she came to me and tried to relieve my pain, I knew she wasn't 'allowed' to do that, but she insisted so I let her do what she wanted. I started feeling drousy and my eyes went shut.
After a few hours I woke up, the fire was still buring with the remaining coals and daylight started coming up. everybody was sleeping and DQueene lay next to me, her hand on my shoulder.
I got up, tried to sneak away as silent and softly as I could. She grumbled a bit but continued sleeping. I stirred up the fire again till nice flames came out and started to heat some water for coffee.
kiya opened her eyes "Aaah, I love the smell of fresh coffee in the morning" she said, rubbing her eyes.
"shhht, let's not wake the others yet, they need all the sleep they can get because I suspect we've got some hard times ahead of us."
"You're right, let's wake them up in an hour or so, when the sun is fully up. How are you holding?"
"I'm fine I said, I slept without pain tonight so I'm very rested. You see kiya, the pains come and go and most of the time they don't stay very long, but it's those long and furious pains that are hard to cope with. Luckily they don't come that often, so please don't think I'm helpless because you see me in pain from time to time".
