- I - A Restless Night
Sitting on the edge of her bed in the dimly lit chamber of the inn, Kalestiya's hands clasped tightly in her lap as she stared out a small window into the moonlit night. The room glowed softly, cradled by the moon’s light. Despite the warmth of the hearth crackling in the corner of the room, she shivered involuntarily, a chill creeping down her spine that had nothing to do with the cool night air. Ever since her encounter with the god-like creature known as N’jal, she had been plagued by haunting nightmares of an indecent nature, it left her feeling flustered and embarrassed. Tired and sighing, Kalestiya got up from bed and walked back and forth in the room, her footsteps making soft sounds on the wooden floor. She wanted to sleep to escape the troubles of the day, but the nightmares made it hard to look forward to.
Seeking a distraction, Kalestiya shifted her gaze to the table beside the bed. Her herbalism and healing supplies were strewn across it in disarray. Though she had intended to tidy them up, exhaustion weighed heavily on her. With a resigned sigh, Kalestiya sank back onto the bed, her thoughts swirling with emotions. She longed to return to the carefree days of her youth, before she had been thrust into a world of darkness and danger, but she knew that such a life was no longer possible.
As she gazed out the window into the night, Kalestiya made a silent vow to herself: no matter how difficult, she would face her challenges with courage and determination. With that resolve firm in her heart. The young healer finally allowed herself to drift into sleep, ready to face whatever terrors might haunt her dreams.
