Astra In A Strange Land
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 34555
|
The dimensional travel was hard on Astra. She was a wreck. Her hair was
half burnt off, several long gashes marred her skin, both eyes were
bruised and she was wracked with fever. She noted the brightly colored wagons. Then blurrr...and she was in the middle of the wagons and she was falling and a small boy was wide with shock. A week passed. Astra woke in the back of a wagon. She heard the creek of the wheels. She smelt the tang of horses. Her skull, bereft of most of her hair, vibrated. Her eyes darted back and forth. This cart was efficently stocked. It was a rolling medical clinic. Bandages, healing potions, knives, alcohol to clean the knives... Suddenly a curtain moved. Astra groaned as the sunlight hit her eyes. "Sorry." said a figure, closing the curtains. "Where am I?" Astra hacked, sounding nothing like her former self. "My name is Lucy Jones. I'm the doctor for the traveling Blaze Carnival. We found you. You've been out for a week." Astra's eyes re-adjusted. She saw a woman in a loose pink blouse, back pants and with hair redder then hers ever was. She had a kind smile and wide blue eyes that efficently checked her condition. "How are you feeling? Would you like something to drink? Tea? Water?"
