She's masked heavily??
Author
How are you guys??💕💕💕😉
Nicole
But if I sense any danger, please you must leave.
Nicole
There's much we don't know about this scourge.
Phoebe
I promise, I'll be careful, Nicole.
Nicole's lips curl into a small smile.
Nicole
I know you will, let's go.
Nicole
Nicole and I follow the priestess through the silent town.
She leads us down an alley full of poorly constructed shacks.
Phoebe
(These shacks look abandoned.)
Phoebe
(Did the sickness claim the people who lived here?)
Phoebe
(Just how long has this been going on in secret?)
Phoebe
(Did father know anything about this and chose not to tell me?)
Dim light filters through the cracks of the shack at the end of the alley.
The priestess stops and points.
Priestess
It's that shack at the end there.
Priestess
Doctor Cameron is already inside.
Nicole
Return to the church and inform the Bishop at once.
Nicole
Organise two search parties as well.
Nicole
One for Phoebe's father, Doctor Noah
Nicole
The other for the apple Seller. He's a victim.
Priestess
Right away ,Sister Nicole.
The priestess bows and quickly leaves.
Phoebe
(I've never seen this side of Nicole before.)
Phoebe
(She really knows how to take charge.)
Phoebe
(No wonder, she's so highly respected at the Church.)
Nicole squares her shoulders and turns to me.
Nicole
Are you sure you want to see this? It's gruesome...
I stand my ground despite my fear.
Phoebe
Yes, I want to see.
Phoebe
If this is connected to father, I need to learn all I can to help him.
Nicole still looks uncertain but nods.
A thin cloth serves as a door.
Nicole pulls it back ,just enough to peek through.
Nicole
Cameron, it's me. I'm coming.
The shack is small and cramped.
A woman struggles to restrain a woman writhing on a like of rags.
Cameron
Stay still, woman! I'm trying to help you!
The woman lashes out and Cameron utters a string of foul curses.
Phoebe
(This is the doctor?)
Author
The mask covers Cameron's nose...even though it's not in the picture
Author
👆🏻 that's the type of mask she's wearing, I hope everyone's got the idea.
Phoebe
(Why is she wearing a mask like that?)
Cameron looks up and quickly beckons Nicole over.
