The side effects

Growing up, she had been aware of Lillith's sickness just from hearing the other healers speak about her and seeing them go to speak with Ulric and disappearing for bits of time into her room, but she had been too young and too inexperienced to help. By the time she fully came into her own as a healer Lillith was already on the mend so she never actually treated her herself. It was just one of those things that she heard around the castle, picking up from bits and pieces of conversations she heard in passing. A small benefit that came from being so quiet and so observant.

When Ezra came to speak with her she was surprised since she couldn't remember a time when she had actually spoken to the boy directly, but when he began to explain how Lillith had collapsed during their patrol she understood and promised to go see Lillith after the girl had a few moments to rest. Following through on that promise, she loaded up her bag with some supplies and then went to Lillith's room later in the day, waiting till several hours after Ezra had spoken to her. It was late afternoon, the sun just beginning to sink toward the horizon, but the sky hadn't begun to darken with the colors of a sunset just yet.

She gently knocked on Lillith's door before pushing it open just enough to peek "Lillith?" she asked, her mint and lavender gaze seeking out the silver and white young woman. "I just came to check on you... How are you feeling?"
