<br/><br/>Imara locked eyes with Sky as she spoke,  "I have pain here and here, and odd cramps across here, I also feel feverish." Her response was to Witness, but she could only focus on one person at a time right now. Steeling her visage  Imara addressed Sky, "I am a fair shot with a bow," a sharp intake of breath  as Witness grazed a particularly sensitive pain chakra. "When I choose I can observe the immaterial, and deal with it, in most manners. I am a student of Sorcery having mastered the Hound of the Five Winds, and Summon the Harvest, and I have a unique set of allies, and connections that frankly should not be dismissed. Another thing that may be viable, I am versatile in a fashion that with the proper training I can learn the essence powers of spirits, ghosts, demons, even those who have taken the Second Breath."<br/>A commotion at the door drew a welcoming release in her brow. Pine approached manhandling those who stood near his patient. His bedside manner was gruff, and he hated her with a passion, but he would work to save a patient. He had made his oath. Imara grimaced and described the pain again word for word making clear how she was feeling and how she knew something was wrong. "I have pain here and here, and odd cramps across here, I also feel feverish, but you probably already noticed that. Do what you need to Master Pine and know your are welcome and appreciated, the child of Imminent Renewal must survive. There was one who named himself Abyssal, an argument erupted between himself and another here. He appeared to be under some sort of assault and without warning there was an essence discharge. He seemed better after that, but a moment later, the pain started followed by the cramps." Her eyes remained locked to Sky, Witness beside her, but bound by his driven purpose, Vedaa anchored by duty, but driven away by hate. Only Sky in the room bore stability without baggage. The determination in her eyes overrode the disgusted look as she heard the bottles clink and knew that a new concoction was being assembled. She downed the potion like an experienced drinker, though the potent medication hit her fast and hard. As her eyes unfocused and the tension of pain left her forehead, she overheard the statement of holding her back. "You canno' afford to go wiffout me." Her head had whipped around and the dizzy spell that followed drove the woman to her rest.<br/>Witness touched her brow and her abdomen listening as both heartbeats beat strong and healthy. Then beckoning everyone back out of the bedroom, though his countenance offered that if Sky wished it so, she could remain, he left Pine with his patient. "I believe most of you await an explanation." The deep baritone voice was clear and almost musical. "Yes, she is with child. She carries the child of Imminent Renewal, who holds her son in ransom."<br/>"The terms of the deal she wrought with the small god is that he will not infect her son nor any of the Tribe or House Iselsi, for 200 years, in exchange, she will bear the child for the duration of the birth. She offered up a considerable amount of Iselsi funds and resources for her care and preservation over  the years." Vedaa interrupts.<br/>"A deal that your Family turned away from at the first excuse. She sought out the care she needs to maintain this  deal. Forget that not child of Iselsi." Witness reminded the scion coldly. "The deal protects your honor by her actions, you may have gained her acceptance, but the slight is still on House Iselsi," turning back to the assembled that remained, "She feels that Greenhaven is where she is needed. She has experience with gods and powers that can profit the region with bountiful crops. She may have been caught unawares, but I assure you she is not defenseless. Understand, I know her, she will follow if you attempt to leave her behind, and has the means to make the journey as fast as you."<br/>
