![Smiley :)](https://www.hydlaaplaza.com/PlaneShift/smf/Smileys/custom1/smiley.gif)
Halbor was at Harnquist's smithy pounding away at some bronze ingots when Cenwaerd arrives.
(20:00:20) Cenweard says: I need someone who can heal NOW!!!
(20:00:40) Kelell says: xyou dont look hurt ...
(20:00:51) Cenweard says: I'm not Merra is.
(20:00:53) Halbor looks over at cenweard "whats the problem?"
(20:01:49) Cenweard says: I left her over by the Sanitarioum.
I have a hard time typing and controlling my character at the same time so here is where Halbor follows Cenwaerd to the sanitorium.
(20:02:56) Cenweard says: So can you help her?
(20:03:31) Barnus glances at Halbor.
(20:03:33) Cenweard points to the bruises on her stomach.
(20:03:37) Halbor steps in the tent and spots the kran, then looks at cenweard "did kra do this?"
(20:03:50) Cenweard says: No I did.
(20:04:15) Halbor blinks "what? why?
(20:04:28) Cenweard says: I I I was angry.
(20:04:36) Cenweard looks down in shame.
(20:04:50) Merra says: i wasn't his fault...
(20:05:19) Cenweard says: Merra? No I I
(20:05:29) Halbor takes a breath, but gets to business anyway "alright, lets see that..."
(20:05:31) Oscurita walks up to the tent, silently looking at the ground
(20:05:40) >Barnus Fallcrest falls asleep beside Merra Buchino.
(20:06:02) Merra says: my baby...
(20:06:45) Halbor hmms a moment then places a hand over the injury, then starts to glow with the light of the crystal
(20:07:56) Halbor removes his hand and the bruises are gone "how's that now?"
(20:08:03) Cenweard says: Will they be okay?
(20:08:08) Merra grips her stomach in pain "it still hurts..."
(20:08:52) Cenweard says: Here she might be needing this. Handing Halbor the gestration herbs.
(20:09:06) Halbor says: how long have you been carrying the baby?
(20:09:28) Cenweard says: A few weeks now she has.
(20:09:47) Cenweard says: About 2 and a half.
(20:10:07) Oscurita whispers something, and a smaller, weak whisper answers him
(20:10:21) Halbor hmms in thought "much to early to give birth..."
(20:10:46) Cenweard says: What? will she be okay?
(20:11:00) Cenweard says: What is the matter?
(20:11:28) Cenweard says: I knew better than to.....
(20:11:33) Halbor removes his helmet then leans forward to put an ear to merra's abdomen
(20:11:46) Cenweard begins to cry and leaves the tent.
(20:12:07) >Cenweard Alwin takes a seat.
(20:12:35) Cenweard continues to cry and mutter "You worthless fool"
(20:13:06) Cenweard sniffles. "Who are you?
(20:13:30) Halbor straightens then takes the herbs cenwaerd gave him to the mortar and pestle
(20:13:41) Oscurita looks into Cenweard's eyes, and says "I can help her."
(20:14:00) Cenweard says: You what? How? What is wrong?
(20:14:31) Oscurita opens his book, flipping through the pages
(20:15:08) Oscurita places a finger on a page, and says "She will die."
(20:15:23) Halbor grinds the herbs finely then filtres water through it into a mug before taking the mug back to merra
(20:15:35) Cenweard says: WHAT?!?!?!?! What did I do?
(20:15:46) Cenweard crys bitterly.
(20:15:51) Halbor says: here, drink this
(20:16:06) Merra takes the mug and sips it
(20:16:28) Oscurita's voice shakes a bit as he says "I..I can prevent it... For a fee."
(20:16:52) Merra grips her stomach in pain dropping the mug
(20:17:13) Cenweard says: What? But what what?
(20:17:40) Cenweard says: Anything. I'll do anything.
(20:18:08) Oscurita takes a deep breath, and says "I n..need you to come with me."
(20:18:15) >Cenweard Alwin stands up.
(20:18:28) Merra says: Cenweard....
(20:18:36) Merra grips her stomach more
(20:18:40) Halbor looks at merra with concern "that should have eased the pain and helped the baby, i swore i could still hear a heartbeat in there..."
(20:19:05) Cenweard whispers Merra.
(20:19:24) Cenweard says: What dear?
(20:19:29) Merra says: the baby... i can't feel anything...
(20:19:32) Merra cries
(20:19:54) Cenweard drops to a knee crying and hugs Merra.
(20:19:58) >Cenweard Alwin takes a seat.
(20:20:30) Cenweard Chokes out: I I I I'm sorry.
(20:21:36) Cenweard sobs bitterly with Merra.
(20:21:58) Merra cries more
(20:22:17) Halbor puts his hand back on merra's abdomen "i've never heard of anyone trying to heal a baby still in the womb, so i have no idea if this will work..." he looks at merra for permission to proceed
(20:22:40) Merra nods
(20:23:12) Cenweard watches closely to see if Halbor's Magic works.
(20:23:32) Halbor nods back, then concentrates hard for a few seconds, the light of the crystal glowing brighter than before
(20:23:46) Barnus shifts a bit in his slumber.
(20:24:12) Merra screams as her stomach starts to hurt more
(20:24:18) Halbor waits a moment, then does it again
(20:24:35) Merra cries and screams louder
(20:24:52) Cenweard feels Merra's stomach hoping that it will turn out right.
(20:25:31) Cenweard 's tears begin to fall on to Merra's stomach.
(20:25:32) Halbor falls to his knees "i don't think i can do it another time..."
(20:26:00) Cenweard says: Oh Merra.
(20:26:19) >Halbor Gagari stands up.
(20:26:29) Merra cries "please i can't take it anymore...."
(20:26:53) Halbor pulls himself back up and listens for a heartbeat again
(20:27:03) Cenweard says: Do it. He says to the voice in his head.
(20:28:14) Cenweard stands up and says "Do it" Once more to the voice in his head.
(20:28:17) >Cenweard Alwin stands up.
(20:28:27) Cenweard says: Anything.
(20:29:16) Cenweard says: Yes take it.
(20:29:33) Halbor looks at cenwaerd "who are you talking to?"
(20:30:00) Merra grips her stomach harder
(20:30:15) Oscurita walks into the tent, and places one black clawed hand on Cenweard's head
(20:30:16) Cenweard doesn't notice Halbor's comment as he focuses on the voice in his head.
(20:30:42) Cenweard says: Do it now.
(20:30:50) Merra says: no...
(20:31:05) Halbor turns back to merra "alright, we're going to have to get that baby out if you're going to survive this..."
(20:31:14) Cenweard says: No.
(20:31:20) Merra says: no please...
(20:31:23) Cenweard says: He will save her.
(20:31:28) Halbor says: who?
Cenwaerd falls to the ground, dead.
(20:31:47) Halbor says: what?
(20:31:59) Oscurita's eyes widen with horror
(20:32:07) Oscurita says: M...My god!..
(20:32:18) Barnus opens his eyes and glances at Cenweard's body.
(20:32:20) Oscurita says: D..do I have to do this for it?!
(20:32:36) Oscurita nods
(20:32:44) Oscurita says: I...I...
(20:32:51) Oscurita says: I'll d..do it..t
(20:33:21) Halbor looks at the lemur that was behind cenwaerd "what is going on here?!"
(20:33:41) Oscurita looks right into the man's eyes, and begins to murmur an incantation
(20:34:04) Oscurita opens his book to a page, and his incantation intensifies
(20:34:48) Oscurita's hair becomes a raven black color
(20:36:27) Oscurita tries to place a hand on Halbor's head
(20:36:28) Halbor starts to feel something inside him, he drops to a knee, and suddenly comes to a realization "you...you're the lemur child..that attacked esorono?"
(20:37:06) Oscurita stops his chanting for a moment "Yes.. I am."
(20:38:02) Halbor grunts "why... are you doing ....this?"
(20:39:11) Oscurita says, feeling a lump in his throat as he reaches toward's Halbor's head and starts to cry "For my life back"
(20:39:54) Barnus stands up and reaches for Oscurita to wrap his large, stony hands around the child's neck.
(20:39:55) >Barnus Fallcrest stands up.
(20:40:13) Halbor blinks as he tries to fight the pain
(20:40:14) Oscurita's book whispers to him " Do it slowly.... Painfuly"
(20:40:53) Oscurita does not react to the hands around his neck, simply saying "Don't even waste your time.... He won't like it"
(20:41:47) Barnus squeezes tightly in an attempt to choke Oscurita, and mutters: Stop, Lemur boy.
(20:41:59) Oscurita's bursts open to a page, and an oily black hand emerges from it, and it tries to cut right through the kran's head
(20:42:15) Oscurita cries even more
(20:42:21) Oscurita says: I..It won't work
(20:42:53) Halbor attempts to call forth all his strenght to knock the book out of the lemur's hand
(20:42:55) Oscurita says: Snap my neck like a twig, it won't do anything..
(20:43:26) Barnus leans back, the hand missing and cutting through a large portion of the kran's arm.
(20:43:49) Oscurita's book sprouts another arm, which grabs onto Halbor's leg as it tries to kick it
(20:44:24) Oscurita's arm then attempts to slice through both of the kran's arms
(20:45:15) Barnus stumbles back, towards and over the pot, grabbing his wounded arm.
(20:45:24) >Barnus Fallcrest takes a seat.
(20:46:11) Halbor pulls his leg back just before the arm can grab it, he winces in pain again from whatever spell was affecting him
(20:47:03) Oscurita tries to grab onto Halbor's head
(20:47:58) Merra screams
(20:49:07) Oscurita says: [Black tendrils, razor sharp and very long, erupt from the ground and begin to slash at Halbor
(20:49:33) Merra continues screaming
(20:49:57) Halbor looks back at the child "you won't...gain anything...from this senseless killing"
(20:50:08) Oscurita's book creates another tendril that tries to slit Merra's throat
(20:50:38) Oscurita says: No! H...he told me... That he w..would bring them back!
(20:50:38) >Halbor Gagari stands up.
(20:50:47) Oscurita cries more
(20:51:16) Merra screams as the tendril comes toward her
(20:51:31) Halbor tries again to avoid the tendrils by backing out of the tent, several hit his arms and legs
(20:53:35) Merra gets her throat slit and holds her neck
(20:54:27) Merra says: ...
(20:55:00) Merra feels the life of her baby failing inside her
(20:56:38) Merra chokes
(20:56:53) Oscurita begins sobbing, and he runs away
(20:57:21) Barnus stands up and walks over to Merra.
(20:57:21) Oscurita's tendril tries to slash Halbor's throat as he flees
(20:57:21) >Barnus Fallcrest stands up.
(20:57:36) Merra tries to reach for a crystal in her bag as she bleeds out
(20:58:00) Halbor is barely able to avoid getting his throat slash, but the tendril digs into his shoulder
(20:58:20) Oscurita's tendril appear's one last time, and tries to stab through Merra's stomach
(20:58:48) Barnus places his hand over Merra's throat and begins to infuse life into her wound.
(20:59:05) Halbor pulls himself around to the other side of the tent for cover
(21:00:41) Merra says: Halbor!
(21:00:57) Halbor shouts: help.....is needed....at the sanitorium....
(21:01:44) Merra shivers as the tendril scars her stomach
(21:02:13) Halbor looks around the corner, then tries to crawl back into the tent
(21:02:30) Merra says: my baby...
(21:02:45) Halbor says: ugh...
(21:05:28) Barnus looks over Halbor and Merra.
(21:05:36) Barnus says: My, what a mess.
(21:06:07) Barnus rubs the deep gash on his arm.
(21:06:13) Halbor looks up at barnus "go, get help..."
(21:06:20) Barnus says: Hmmm?
(21:06:25) Barnus says: Help?
(21:06:32) Barnus says: Yes. Help.
(21:06:50) Merra holds her hand over her bleeding stomach
(21:07:29) Barnus grabs Halbor and tries to hoist him up over his shoulder.
(21:07:31) Barnus says: Up, Ylian.
(21:08:15) Halbor says: no, leave me here, i'll try to keep merra alive, you go to harnquist's and bring others
(21:09:14) Halbor pulls himself up to merra's bed
(21:09:28) Merra tries to stay awake "Halbor...."
(21:09:37) Barnus nods.
(21:09:39) Barnus says: Help.
(21:12:03) Halbor uses the bed frame to get himself standing again, the pain from the spell the lemur cast threatening to tear him up. he places his hand once again on merra's abdomen, over the gash left behind by the dark tendril
(21:12:10) >Halbor Gagari stands up.
(21:12:32) Merra says: is my baby....ok....
(21:13:18) Halbor sighs "i don't know, but i'll do everything....in my power...."
(21:14:03) Barnus looks around the tent aimlessly.
(21:14:06) Barnus says: No luck.
(21:14:18) Merra cries "please save my baby..."
(21:14:52) Barnus says: The baby will live.
(21:15:03) Barnus says: Hopefully.
(21:15:06) Halbor summons up all the strength left in him and focuses it onto merra's abdomen. the tent nearly fills with light
(21:15:08) Barnus scratches his helm.
(21:15:17) Barnus says: My, oh my.
(21:15:43) Merra feels life in her stomach as she passes out
(21:15:48) >Merra Buchino appears to have fallen asleep!
(21:16:03) Halbor collapses into a heap as the life drains from his body
Halbor basically kills himself to save merra and her baby, and after a trip through the death realm and some time spent waiting for harnquist to return to the shop so he could put some things in storage so that he wouldn't be burdened by dakkru's curse (I gotta do that before getting into dangerous situation, it's a real pain getting stuck with over half your weight in inventory
![Wink ;)](https://www.hydlaaplaza.com/PlaneShift/smf/Smileys/custom1/wink.gif)
) and then found Lilura whom he told of the incident.
