~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Shore ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A sea of sand surrounds the magnificent mountain now to your side. The golden sand is flat and hard, easy to walk on. You stand directly between the volcano and the sea. The refreshing sea spray tickles your face as a tropical wind from off the sea whisks it in your direction. The serene roar of the blue-green waves and perhaps the call of a distant gull are typically all that can be heard.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Howard sits cross legged on the sands. Contemplating earlier events in the dining hall. Getting a warning from an officer would have been pause for thought for any other beast but for Howard it meant a couple of hours of resentful muttering and poisonous thinking. He poked at the sand, the free paw supporting his chin as he grumbled under his breath.

Quinten is strolling along the beach near the shore, slouching along with a Javelin resting over one shoulder, ears half cocked and fur covered in a light dusting of sandhe is walking north towards the mountain humming to himsself

Malica comes slowly down the shore from the direction of Halyard, She is leaning against a staff, There are many bandages criss-crossing her midsection, One bandage on her left leg, Right by the knee, Her right arm is missing and in it's place is a half a bandage roll held in place by another bandage, Her left eye is covered with a bandage as well, Hiding the hideous wound that was once her eye, She is looking quietly around..

Howard is aroused from his mumblings be arrivals from both ends of the shore. He stares at each in turn, not particularly troubled or interested by either. He does nothing and continues to sit, watching each in turn draw closer.

Quinten appears to be singing softly to himself, every third step hopping on a few feet and floursinng his spear

Malica hmms and glances at the hares wondering if it would be wise to continue closer..

Howard stands, the idea that one of these beasts might try to talk to him and aggravate his current state has occurred to him, truly he's not in the mood for it. He whistles sharply and gestures at the approaching hare. "Oi! Happy go lucky! Go see what that walking mess wants." he yells out pointing at the fox.

Quinten pauses and turns to look at the fox "Wot me?" he points to himself pausing in mid stride "Well sir I do not know whou you jolly well think you are but i will not go answering the orders of some scruffy tod who does not even have the common curtesy to say good morning, really now, how impolite." he turns and bows to the fox sweeping his javelin to one side "Good day ma'am, would your fair self be in need of any help wot?"

Malica nods her head slightly "Hello.. Eh, Not really, Well maybe a nice place to rest would be nice but I think that the sand is as good as any."

Howard closes his eyes and grips the bridge of his nose the moment the younger hare beings to speak. "Give me strength." evidently chipper is not something that lies well with him. He stops the display of frustration and observes the ensuing conversation ahead, the fox is a master of understatement. Rest? She probably needs medical attention. Not that it was any concern of Howard's.

Quinten tsks and saunters over to the vixen and takes her arm... "Well no lets get you sat down comfortable like and i'll see what we can whip up to help you out ok.." he looks at the other hare "I say old bean, any idea where we can get the lady some medical aid wot? She's in dire shape and could do with some tucker too i would say"

Malica chuckles "I wouldn't say dire. I survived yesterday fairly well."

Howard cant help himself commenting on the side "Are we modest or merely delusional? You look like might not have made it through what ever trouble you may have made for yourself."

Quinten shakes his head, ears turning from side to side "he is damn right you know, you look like you should be in the hospital me ole girl," he looks back at the hare "You never did say is there anyplace we can get the ole lass some doctors? maybe a few nurses with trays of food?"

Malica's brow furrows "Actually, I didn't bring this trouble on me, I was jumped by a large group of beasts during the night." She chuckles "A hospital you say? Would be nice to know where one is."

Howard merely points to the mountain and with one "Ahem." answers Quinten's question.

Quinten shakes his head "I don't know i do appologise miss, you'd think the bugger would at least know where a chap mmight fidn some aid for the damsel in distress i mean really"

Malica puts a paw on the covered eye gently "Really wish they hadn't taken this.."

Howard starts thumping off towards the mountain, his shoulders tense. Along with chipper it also appears that ignorance gets right up his nose too. "Don't we all. Come on. Medicine. Follow.".

Quinten rolls his eyes and drapes the vixens arm over his shoulders to suport her "Well come alonff dearie lets followt he ole buffer and see if he knows what he is on about"

Malica lets the hare carry her quietly..

Salamandastron: Secondary Infirmary

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Salamandastron *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

This is the Secondary Infirmary of Salamandastron, the room to where all

wounded beasts who must be treated immediately are taken. There is a

small alley in the room, with 5 beds each on both sides of it, the back

wall just a mass of cupboards holding herbs, though not as many. One of

the cupboards has no door, and a string dangles down, looping around a

pulley somewhere below the opening. It is a dumbwaiter, leading up to

the Main Infirmary, used for transporting herbs and other medical

supplies to the Secondary Infirmary if need be.

                 Visible Exits:

Howard strides into the infirmary and waits for the pair to catch up. He jabs a paw at th bed "Lie down. We'll fix those holes and then you can push off.". Despite appearances he certainly doesnt want to get into even more trouble with the brass. Brining a fox in is certainly grounds for trouble. Lots of it. Bucket loads.

Howard room-pages, "while you were telling me to my lighting fingers were typing.".

Quinten walks on in, doing his best to support the injured fox "Well i say ole bean, this is a top hole little rock you have yourself here," he looks about and whistles "I do say most perculiar, hares living inside a mountain"

Malica lays down, She looks at the moody guy quietly.

Howard glares darkly at the young hare. "Right you can hop it and all after this." he might be a git but he's a Sala git. "You talk like that in here and some one will have you."

Quinten draws himself upright and opens his mouth then snaps it shut "Right...sorry ole chap....didn't mean to offend what..."

Malica shakes her head slightly and lays back quietly

Howard turns from Quinten and signals one of the infirmary staff over. Although he didn't really need to, the scene was hard to miss amongst the many empty beds. "Deal with that would you" he says bluntly, gesturing at the vixen on the bed. The nurse doesn't begin immediately and instead just looks the invalid up and down. "What hurts more?" she asks eventually. In this time Howard is standing in the door way, looking up and down the corridor.

Howard room-pages, "oh thats just howard. i'm a nice guy really. i have trouble rping mean.".

Quinten sidles away from the bed to get out of the way and walks slowly towards the door looking about from side to side, obviously planning on leaving again if he can, looks like a bods not welcome here

Malica chuckles "You mean what's going to hurt more later? It all hurts like hell right now." She says bluntly.

Howard remains where he is while the nurse chuckles and goes about tending to the vixen's eye. "How'd you end up like this anyway" the nurse asks "If you don't mind me prying."

Quinten slows down and looks back at the vixen, interested in hearing her answer, hepauses a few steps short of the hare blocking the doorway

Malica says softly "I was attacked during the night while traveling by a group of beasts.. It was too dark to see what kind of beasts, Even if they were woodlander or vermin.."

Howard snorts. "If it was us you gave us reason to. Otherwise its vermin. They're everywhere these days." He says as the nurse removes the last of the eye bandages and reaches for some kind of bottle from her apron pocket. "This might sting a little lassy." the nurse warns as she dampens a dressing with it.

You say, "Such a bally shame, being attacked wot, an loosing an eye, i do hope these good folks can patch you up right as rain ma'am""

Malica grits her teeth as the dressing is applied.. She notes the grumpy hare leave..

Quinten walks back over to your bed side and watches the nurse treatin gyou, "Grumpy sort wasn't he my dear? Well i'm sure you'll heal up fine, have to admit this is a mighty odd place, wonder why he was so damn offeneded when i said that, is a bally beast not allowed to be ignorant about the place.
