<b>Re: The Magician's Apprentice (Leaquad, Qedesha, mercurial)</b><br/><br/>She shrinks back a bit from the voices, cowering a bit. Exhausted, she lowers her head to the floor, continuing to lick. The task takes hours - even if she has help, the girl moving with a zombie-like shuffle by the end, finishing licking clean a pair of plate - the only food she's had to day - her tongue raw. She looks up with exhausted, pleading eyes at the ceiling, unable to figure out how she can finish her fast. Tears begin to streak down her cheeks.<br/><br/>"P...please..." its unclear who she is begging, her raw, bloody tongue distorting the words.
