Shards of Memory: The Renewal

*The captain seems to be afflicted by a significantly more extreme version of whatever was ailing Diedrik. Thus, it does not seem readily curable by Valerie's magicks.*

When the nature of the injury is determined Diedrik gives directions to the healer he had spoken to about having the harm he had suffered undone.

"You can have it fixed up there," Diedrik explains, "Oh, and would medical expenses be covered by our employer?"
 

Valerie sucks in a breath on seeing the necrotic wound. "This is bad...worse than any of the others. Beyond my power to be sure."

She looks up and around at everyone. "May I ask what happened here?"

Zaeryn, seeing no reason to keep what happened a secret, nods and explains. “Simply, we boarded a derelict ship and whatever it was that destroyed that crew... I think it was a Voidwight... crept aboard our ship before we left. It then turned some of our crew before attacking us. We lost quite a few crewmembers before it was destroyed... including my angelic Valyssa,” he adds with an anguished look.
 

"Undead..." Ilora shivers slightly, "I'm sorry for your loss, all your losses." She looks at the captain, "I regret I can do nothing for you."
 

Valerie pales and puts a hand to her heart.

"I am sorry," she says softly. "There is nothing in all the worlds as cruel and horrible as the undead. I will speak no more of it, unless you wish it."

She then essays a courtly bow to the captain.

"It's been a pleasure to meet you, Captain, but I think for now I'd best get to my quarters to settle in. Unless there's anything else you need from me?"

(blargh...found a good pic for Valerie, but I don't know how to put it up... Some Jennifer Connelly portrait. Oh well, it's probably copyright anyway. :) )
 

Ilora nods her goodbyes to the captain and the men and follows Valerie to their quarters, swaying subtly. Stepping into the cabin she looks around, "Cozy." and drops her pack in a corner. "So, which bunk do you want?"
 

As everyone leaves the captains quarters, Bardach waits for his orders. He plans in his head to give himself a tour of the rigging to familiarize himself with how the ship is set to run, if no-one has immediate need of him.
 

*Ilora and Valerie find that their cabin does not have two bunks, or even two beds of any sorts--it is clearly furnished as a single.*

*Meanwhile, the captain lethargically heads out to try to find the place Diedrik had mentioned.*
