Castle Of Thorns [Mature]
Mariya's Illness
[Verzyne Duchy - Doctor Zeyd's Clinic]
It's already nighttime when the group arrives at the doctor's clinic.
Julia Brinsley
Zeyd! Open the door!
Fyodor Zeyd
Alright, alright, just a moment!
The door opens, and an old man comes out.
Fyodor Zeyd
What's going on?
Julia Brinsley
We have a patient!
Zeyd immediately opens his door and invites them to come inside.
Julia Brinsley
Mariya Montez.
Fyodor Zeyd
The young widow who lives near the forest?
Julia Brinsley
Yes. We found her unconscious at her home. Her child said she's been ill since this morning.
Fyodor Zeyd
Here, put her on the mattress.
Zeyd orders Lowell who's been carrying Mariya.
Once the sick woman is safely placed on the matress, Lowell steps back to give the doctor some space.
Fyodor Zeyd
You said she's been unwell since morning?
Zeyd asks as he checks Mariya's temperature.
Young Raven (ML)
Yes, Sir. Mother has been unwell for a few days. This morning, she woke up late and had a fever. I told her to rest at home.
Fyodor Zeyd
Has she been coughing?
Young Raven (ML)
No, I don't think so.
Fyodor Zeyd
Has she said anything about being dizzy? Nauseous?
Young Raven (ML)
No, but she's lost her appetite. She only had some light soup and small piece of bread in the morning.
Zeyd finally stands up after examining Mariya for some times.
Fyodor Zeyd
I think she might've caught the same illness as the Emers girl.
Julia Brinsley
Oh my! Is it contagious?
Fyodor Zeyd
No. But it can be fatal to people with low immunity. She needs intensive treatment.
Young Raven (ML)
Oh Sir, please help my mother!
His mother is the only family he has. His father already passed away when he was just an infant.
Fyodor Zeyd
Calm down, child. I will do my best.
Zeyd softly pats Raven head, trying to assure him.
Fyodor Zeyd
Lowell, please move Madam Montez to the side room. She will need to stay here for her treatment.
Bernard Lowell
What about Raven?
Julia Brinsley
Raven can stay with me until Mariya recovers. He can sleep in Dion's room.
Fyodor Zeyd
Good. Now I suggest you all to retire for the night. Madam Montez temperature is too high; she will remain unconscious until her fever comes down.
Julia Brinsley
She'll be okay, Raven. We'll come to visit her again in the morning, okay?
Raven looks at the tired faces of Julia and Lowell.
Young Raven (ML)
Alright, Madam Julia. Doctor, please watch over my mother...
Fyodor Zeyd
Will do, child. Now off you go!
Young Raven (ML)
Get well soon, Mother.
Raven softly kisses his mother's hot cheek.
After saying goodbye to Zeyd, the trio boards the carriage and goes toward the Brinsley family home.
