"I squash a fly against the window with my thumb.
We did that at school. Shakespeare. It was in
another language and now the fly is in another language.
I breathe out talent on the glass to write my name."

I opened my eyes, only to burn them on a strip of lighting above me. I groaned and covered my eyes with a heavy hand. I blinked again and tried to focus my eyes on my surroundings. I was in a small white room lying in a medical bed. There was a small machine humming next to me.

I tried to sit up, but I couldnt. I just seemed... heavy. A man in a white uniform bustled in through the door. He had a beard that seemed to explode from the tip of his chin and a pair of extremely thick glasses. Why good morning mister Aldridge. He grinned at me for a moment before continuing. When you arrived here you were in a pretty poor shape. Your injuries included broken ribs, a broken nose, concussion, several contusions and a sprained wrist. Quite impressive really I frowned at him. I was obviously out of danger and in a medical bay. Because of that I wanted to be discharged, head back to Bretonia and collect my inheritance. The doctor continued on. Now, we gave you some medicine that will have knitted your bones back together and repaired most other damage. You may feel variations of numbness or sharp pain for a few hours though until it gets out of your system.

What happened to the woman? I croaked. The doctor raised a bushy eyebrow at me before continuing.

Ah yes, I know who youre talking about now. She saved your life you know. Miss Leoni Engel was released from medical earlier today and was escorted back to Planet New Berlin. I nodded slightly.

When can I be released? He looked at his watch.

Probably within the hour.
