Ali when he took the water the second time, started to heave.  The pain that shot through him as he felt the muscles in his abdomen tighten again just made him more miserable.  The blessed water the healer had given him was wasted as he looked mournful as he whispered, “I’m so sorry... K..Katheryn.   I.. I.. don’t know my name.”<br/><br/>There was a groan from Ali as he tried to sit up, but the bruises across his abdomen were too severe to allow him to straighten and even the movement opened up the welts on his back and the dark red scabs were filled with fresh red blood dripping across his naked skin and he turned his attention back to Kate and he smiled just a little, “I .. I hope you can get me out of this hell, but I doubt it Lady.. Kath..Katheryn .  I .. do not think I am long for the corvids.”
