Blackwater Islands Staring at the waves, but you don't wanna drown

vague-ish <3. Open to anyone!! Can also easily be a RO

No...

Bridget woke with a groan to a familiar sensation.  Her leg was burning, pain twisting up it and settling deep in her hip with a throbbing intensity.  She knew vaguely that they'd treated her but she had not been able to see, yet, how it looked.  It did not feel like much improvement right now.

She tensed and felt her stomach churn.  Bridget had never liked the opiates that the court used to ascribe to but now found herself thinking longingly of her stash, tucked away safely in her abandoned store within Brecheliant.  She'd do just about anything for that relief now.

There was nothing else to do but try and drift off again. Eventually sleep did come.

'Where were you?'  Unfamiliar children leered at Bridget from behind Teya with fierce golden eyes, but her friend's expression was the worst.  There was no welcome.  She turned but the shadows lengthened, twisting to block her path.  Something gnawed on her leg, and she knew they had hit bone... gone deeper..

She cried out but didn't wake.  Since rousing, a while after collapsing on their beach, her sleep had been spotty and disjointed, broken (if not helped) with pain and with nightmares.

She was lucky the druids here were talented... under their care, the infection killing her had been expunged. But the damage it had done, and the measures necessary to remove it, had her systems in crisis mode. She hadn't been lucid enough yet to worry about how far their kindness would extend, but the anxiety that came with being bedridden did not help her sleep quietly.
