The sun was just starting to set when Delphine was finally close to the sanctuary she had heard so much about. She had been traveling for days from a couple towns over, and the medicine books in her duffel bag started to weigh on her. Right before entering the forest she felt a small chill around her shoulders, so she stopped to put on her sweater and have a drink of water. As she was sitting on the ground under one of the first trees of the forest that she knew surrounded the sanctuary, she remind herself of why she had traveled to far; she could see signs of fights and struggles around her, and she knew this was the place she was meant to be in order to help those who were hurt as much as possible.<br/><br/>She got back up and started heading through the forest. She tried to be as quiet as possible, because she was afraid of getting attacked by a scout. Once she was closer to the sanctuary, she would probably have more of a chance to explain she was there to join and help with the efforts, not to attack.<br/><br/>What she wasnâ€™t going to explain just yet, though, was that her main goal was to look for a cure to the plague. Ever since her older brother had died 3 years earlier, all she could think to do was learn about the plague that had taken him away from her. Of course, there wasnâ€™t much written about the plague in any books, but at least this way she had learned the basics of medicine. She still had around three years ahead of her in which she could start her search for a cure, and in the meantime she could use what she knew to help all the kids that might need assistance in the sanctuary.  Just that thought was enough to make her smile. She looked at the lowering sun and then in the direction of the abandoned school, which she could start to see through the trees.
