Never Let It Get That Far

Relm had been out on a hunt in the evening, going about her usual duties which was providing to the stores when she wasn't running patrols or giving time to herself. But lounging around relaxing was a far task she wanted to be in because these days she tried to fill her mind with anything but her inner thoughts. She did struggle a lot with her relationship and situation with Alastor, but she tried her best to hide it. She may not have told him how much she wanted to be in Manea's steps beside him, but he was sure to know the feelings that resided around it. She didn't want to be anywhere else but beside him, even at the cost of her emotional life.

She had been feeling off for about a week or so, she just felt like her body had changed somehow inside but also in a way outside. She didn't think much of it really. With her upcoming heat season around the corner, while not her first, she had expected changes that she may not have known. She still made her way through the days, trying to stay out of her head that seemed to be more anxious and down than normal. She tried to take things a little easier too because she felt a little weaker at times. Nothing she was worried about.

She had drug back a deer from her hunt when she had picked up on the smell of her own blood that was coming from behind her and that did cause her to worry a little bit being more physical than her other symptoms but she didn't jump to any obvious conclusions. It wasn't until she was making her way around the lake that she had a near dreadful sharp pain right in the core of her stomach. She stopped for a moment, nothing but a look on her face as it passed and before she could take another step it hit her again. She grunted nearly silently, there was no one around to hear or see her at least. Usually she'd just ride it out and let whatever was wrong with her pass on her own, but as time went on she didn't know what was happening to her while the pain was getting increasingly worse and fading out again. Her pain tolerance was high, and maybe it was just getting numbing as she made her way over to the communal healing areas.

When she got there she didn't panic or run around looking for anyone, that wasn't like her. Instead taking a careful step inside, unknowingly shivering slightly from the pain and shock coming over her. Of course she didn't even call out for whoever may have been here.
