Her mind was fuzzy suddenly broken from the peaceful dreams of her sleep. Eris slowly opened her eyes to see the sky as her view. There were a few clouds floating by leaving her to realize that she was lying on the ground. She lifted herself up carefully feeling unbalanced for some reason. When she looked around the woman from before was staring down at her as though she had been waiting.
Eris folded her legs up at her side trying to figure out what had happened to her. She could see that the scenery was different from before with a wall in the distance that was unfamiliar. ‘How long have I been asleep? What happened last…’ Her mind was still feeling ill causing her to sway back and forth. The vision became clear finally as the fog lift from her around and the strange sensation faded away. “Where am I?”
“You’re in Lothua now, nearby Haven our destination.”
“Lothua?” she said in shock. It came as a deep surprise to her that they were already inside the kingdom while she had been asleep. The kingdom seemed so far away from the mountains that she thought it would have been a long trek through wild fields. She figured that she was going to be seeing the countryside of Cormenyr. Eris knew that she was not on a sight seeing tour, but it was a foreign kingdom and land that she had never been to before. She would have liked to have spent more time there, it seemed so peaceful.
Eris looked back towards the woman with curiosity. “How long was I asleep?”
“It’s been four days.”
“Four days?” She fell back on the ground trying to imagine the things that happened in such a time. ‘How could I be out for so long?’ Eris wanted up having the thoughts that she had been doing nothing for so many days. She wanted to move around again even though it felt like only a few moments to her. Her legs felt a little weak and unstable as she raised herself up higher. The increase in height made her head dizzy again dropping her to the ground. She slowly tried again to stand finding the awkwardness more bearable this time. Her knees locked in place once she was fully raised keeping her from falling back over.
Eventually, she began to move forward testing herself. The dizziness had finally disappeared allowing her to move freely without worry. She looked at the woman once more not certain what was going to happen now. Eris was back to where she had been before with someone offering help. The last person had abandoned her out in the mountains while she was asleep. She had been lucky that someone found her, something bad could have happened to her being alone in a foreign land. Now she was in Lothua for a reason that she was still not certain about. “What’s going to happen now?”
