Briana felt herself being lifted & struggled slightly but the effort was 
too much & she sank back into unconsciousness.
--------------------------------------------------------------

The next thing Briana knew, she felt cool water on her face, it felt so good.
She opened her eyes & saw someone with bright green eyes staring down at 
her. There was kindness in those eyes....she smiled. She was safe. She 
closed her eyes again.

Briana awoke again about an hour later & sat bolt upright in bed. "Where 
am I?" she thought wildly. She looked around. There was a lot of 
confusion, but most of the people seemed gathered around another bed a 
little ways from her. She heard whispers "he's badly hurt" "He's going to 
lose that eye" She winced at the thought of anyone so badly hurt. She 
also heard people talking about someone missing & heard talk of her being 
taken. So much going on.

She looked around to see if there was anyone not occupied with what was 
going on near the other bed. "Water, please?" she tried to call out. It 
came out as barely a croak. She tried again "Someone? could I please have 
some water?"

NRPG: I don't know who all is around or I would have tried to call 
someone over. I know most of the people were shooed out away from Michel 
& I know David is busy with Minty. Is Reolden still hanging around to 
find out what happened to the girl he rescued? Or has Hedda come in? or 
anyone else?
