The Long Winter RPG

Dafodyl awoke lying on her back next to the warm fire. Gaddy sat closest to her, and Hal was sitting next to him. Gaddy had Emerald beside him. "They all survived, but where are the others?" she said to herself.

Her face hurt severely, where the massive beast had scratched her. She painfully sat up. She had cuts all over her arms and legs, and most of them were still bleeding. Her foot had a simple bandage around it, but spots of it were soaked in the blood that was seeping through. She looked at Emerald, who was bundled up completely very near to the fire. Her face was as white as the snow they were sitting on. She could see that Emerald’s lower jaw was shaking, but not very quickly. ‘At least she is still alive,’ she thought.

She looked around, and saw Branda walk back in from under the tarp. "Oh bless you Dafodyl! You’re awake!" He yelled with excitement as her approached her. "That was a mighty encounter with those dogs that you had. Bullroarer and the rest are on their was here now. Get some rest."

He started to gently push her down, but she blurted out, "What about Emerald?" She looked sadly to him.

He sighed, and said slowly: "Well, I am going to try to heal her, but I do not know if it is to late or not. We can only hope for the best."
