Day 201 [event post]

Who: Zahi and everyone who wants to go hunt down the cure
Open: Open
When: 201- onwards
Where: the monument, and then out on the Skyway
What: People in the Bastion are falling sick, and Zahi knows where a cure can be found. Unfortunately, it won't be easy to get to.
Format: action
Warnings: none

[On Day 201, after several people have fallen ill, another meeting is called. This time, however, it is not Nathaniel who has called for everyone. It's Zahi.]

Okay, I know everyone's been worried about the people in the hospital, and it looks like our fears weren't unfounded: some of the people who went on that last trip, they caught something.

I've been watching the symptoms, and I think I know what this is. A long time ago, back before Zayna was born, there was a terrible illness that claimed the lives of many Ura. Everyone who fell sick here, they had the same symptoms as those who caught the disease before.

On the plus side, this means that it can be cured. I know of a clinic, way out in the Terminals, where there should be some medicine stocked. Not only can we cure the sick, but we can give another kind of medicine to those who aren't sick yet, so they won't catch it at all.

The downside is that it's gonna take a while to get there. It'll be at least two days there, and possibly more to track down exactly where the clinic is, and then the same amount of time back. We're looking at a four-day minimum, which means we won't be much help to those who are sick right now. They'll either be dead or getting better by the time we get back.

Then there's the fact that it's really dangerous out there. Zayna and I were out on the Terminals before we came here, and let's just say that there's a reason we went looking for somewhere safer to stay.

If you'd rather stay here, I can understand that. The Bastion is an amazing place, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone here managed to save everyone. But I'm not a fan of putting all my eggs in one basket, so I figured it's worth a shot to go and try to get some of the medicine.

What do you guys think?

... Its a little lonely. [ Because AZ is in the hospital, and N is out helping Jay. ]

But it's better to be a little lonely than to try seeing people and let the plague get out.

I can only imagine. Is there anything that I can do to help you while I work on helping everyone else? You're being very helpful, I'd like to see your needs met.

You should focus on the sick people. And the ones directly taking care of them.. [ Because she saw what could happen. It doesn't look like things were heading down that way, but she doesn't want something to go wrong because someone decided to focus on her instead of sick people.

But she thinks for a little bit.

A little wagon could make it so I can carry more.

[ And put Mikoto in it. He's getting too big for her to hold long, but he's not very fast on his own... which is why he's stopping by her feet now. ]

[Colin nods, and he looks at her thoughtfully.]

I can make a wagon pretty easily. Might take me a little over an hour or so.

[He nods to himself.]

Yeah, that's easily done. I can make you a wagon in no time flat.
aprettyred: (You said we could keep it...)

.. A red one?

[ Colin have you figured out what color she can actually see yet? ]
freedom_engineer: (Cocky)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2014-06-30 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
I can definitely make it a red one.

[You've never seen his pride and joy, Anna. A nice, flame red-patterned ship.]
aprettyred: (I found Tatara)

[ New favorite non not!family adult, this one right here. ]

Thank you.

You're very welcome, Anna. Let me get this food to the people who need it, check my patients, re-sterilize, and then I'll get you your wagon.

And thank YOU. You've been more helpful than you can know.

[Colin smiles, and reaches out to gently put his hand on her shoulder.]
