The Rescue
She came to. Her head still hurt from where she had been knocked out. She opened her eyes and saw that her vision was still blurred. She could see that there were two people in the room with her, but not much more detail than that. She could also tell that she was tied to a chair. ‘Great!’ She had got out of other situations like it before, but it was still not a place she wanted to be. Especially, given she couldn’t say anything with her hands tied behind her. She blinked again, and her eyes focused.
She could see what they were saying.
She’s awake, one said.
However, the other was turned to the side, so she couldn’t quite make out what he was saying. The other who had said she was awake approached her. His tread was heavy. You’re not getting away, he said.
She tried to move her head to say ‘Let me go!’ But became overwhelmed with dizziness before she could get halfway.
The first guy then said, Let what? While his body shook with laughter.
She lowered her head in a sigh.

Galladan awoke with a start, and fell out of the bed. There was frantic knocking at the door. He rushed over and opened it. The young maid nearly fell into the room. What’s going on?
One of the other visitors has been kidnapped! The maid said, so quickly that his eyes could barely keep up with the signs.
Kidnapped? Who?
One of those who arrived last night, Sir, the maid said, only slightly slower. Lady Jana Elle Polaris.
