The Body Walks

They hadn't burned her yet. They hadn't burned her or buried her or done anything else indicating a funeral had been performed. In fact she was laying, naked, upon the cold marble table when she awoke confused and disoriented. Her eyes popped open as they had done many mornings before this, though not for the last few weeks, and she sat upright and looked around with concern. She remembered this place, she'd been here before when last she was injured. Her arm... No it wouldn't do to dwell on that only...She frowned. The last thing she remembered was the feeling of blood flowing down from her throat to cover her chest, the inability to speak and then a sharp pain in her chest. A hand went to both places to find unmarred, smooth skin where the remembered injuries had been.

She was naked, in the Rememdium but in a room she had never been in before. It was cold, stark. Her shield and sword and badge of office were laid out on a table beside her as if funeral goods but she wasn't dead. She needed answers, needed to find out what had happened, who had brought her here, who had...well they must have found someone in time to heal her injuries, that was the only explanation. But then...why had they left her here, alone and unclothed. She scanned the room but could not find her clothing, or any for that matter and she grunted with annoyance. Well there appeared to be only one way to get answers to her questions and it wasn't by sitting here.

She stood from the table, bare feet landing lightly upon a floor as equally cold as the table she'd just left and reached for her things. Shield was strapped across her back, sword was strapped to her hip and the badge she just held in her hands, no pockets to place it in or fabric to pin it to.

She would find answers. Her mind was still a muddled confusion, a similar feeling once experiences upon waking up, especially waking up in a place one didn't remember being. The tavern. That was the last place she remembered being and so it would be the first she would go, but she needed to get out of here to get there and so out the door and into the hallway to search for the exit to this place.

Was nodding to whatever the Doctor said about the really good reasons he shouldn't let just anyone see a Corpse and to be honest she didn't blame the man. The Gypsy knew what it was like to be on the Governor's bad side.

"You do good work Doc." She commented instead as he examined her hands. " Wish my grip was better,, Penmanship has gone to Shiiii.."

Then wouldn't you know it?

"Doctor!..." Some Girl came rushing in, all heavy breathing and freckles..."He did it again Doc!!...Fell off the roof. Mah's sure he broke his back this time"

the Girl continued to The Gypsy delight speaking of a brother that has climbed everything from Trees to the tavern and is in her opinion a total blockhead. As she spoke, the Gypsy slipped her hands away from him and moved towards the door.

"I'll leave you to your work doc. Sorry if my request made you uncomfortable...Not really a funeral Person" A shrug and she was soon out the door and heading off towards the tavvvv...


What the hell?
