Nacht woke up with a fever and generally felt like shit. He looked around before realizing that the entire room was unnaturally dark. Barely mustering the strength to hold up his hand, he attempted to absorb in the darkness and quickly lost focus, becoming queasy and gagging. However bad his physical state, though, his mental state was still sharp if getting slightly worse every passing second. Something has to be wrong, but what? I felt fine when I went to sleep yesterday. The boy walked outside and looked around, the darkness following and making his effort fruitless, the only thing visible a strange sun. He could tell it was dark even through the darkness around him by virtue of his powers, and that sent his mind, fighting back shocks of tiredness and pain, into a curiosity-fueled frenzy.
I need to get to the infirmary. Is this the Syzygy thing everyone was worried about a few good months ago? He'd think, having adopted a pace similar to that of a snail. He walked by doors he could barely see and cringed, realizing that if he couldn't absorb the darkness and the sun was somehow blocked, it would not disappear. There were two squires ahead of him also up early, talking together. The image made him grin at what a peaceful community the knights had fostered, a gesture more scary than sappy to the duo, who stared at he who had the general aura of a pale zombie shrouded in darkness before running away. Well, that felt a bit depressing. Where had he experienced such expressions before? Ah, yes, for the past decade he had dealt with such.
He was not too disheartened for his state might be temporary, but the reaction still made him a tad upset. Finally, he managed to stagger his way to the infirmary and climb on to a bed, just lying there staring at his hands for a few seconds before getting bored. Turning his head, he would look around at the beds beside him and think he saw the form of...someone. "Uh...Hi...Erm, what brings you here?" A stupid question, but whatever.
(Idk, this isn't really that epic but it could be fun. Also, you don't have to also be sick to join this thread. Nacht is kind of hallucinating. I dunno if the tag is right because this is so small, so someone tell me if it is not.)
