Venus came back in and went right to the kitchen. "Hey, um, Alice, can I talk to you for a minute?" She bit her lip slightly. Viggo raised an eyebrow at the nervous look in her eyes but said nothing.

"Oh. Sure." Alice looked anxious when Venus came running back in. She stood up and walked towards her. "What's going on?" She asked quietly and nervously. "Is Enethar ok? Did something bad happen?" Panic began to rise.

"Your friend, the Satellite, he's not..." she huffed a sigh, trying to form the words. "He won't be coming out of it anytime soon. Something happened and now he's in some kind of... some kind of coma." It was as confusing to her as it had been the healers. "You can come see him later. Right now they're dealing with his blood poisoning. The wounds were infected."

Alice's mood abruptly changed at that moment. The word coma in it's own frightened her to the core of her soul. She stared at Venus for a long time, her face paled up now. Her body was visibly shaking from the fear in her body. "... Oh." She said, her gaze slowly going to the floor. "I'm going to go take a nap then. T-Tell me when I can see him." Coma was another case of 'Oh Shit' scenarios in her head, and now with Enethar trapped in one, she slowly turned and began to head towards the room she was in. She was terrified and confused at the same time. Suddenly, tears began to fall from her eyes once more. She bumped into the door of her room, before opening it and then closing the door. She sluggishly dragged herself towards the bed where she just completely collapsed and broke down once more. "IT'S ALL MY FUCKING FAULT!!!!: She howled into the sheets. "WHY HIM?! HE DOESN'T DESERVE THIS!!!" She was on the verge of screaming.

Viggo and Venus could still hear her from where they were. Venus was crestfallen, and Viggo just stared at the floor. "This is what always happens," he growled, clenching his fingers into a fist. Venus shook her head. "Not now, Viggo." She headed back out. "I'll be at the healer's."

Alice stopped with the howling and was now just sobbing. Her mentality was cracking by the second, and soon it would be completely gone. Now Alice was all alone, with Enethar on the boundary of life and death. "... I rather be dead than be alive and alone..." She croaked after a moment. Alice pulled away from the bed and crawled over to her backpack. "Adrian said my death wouldn't matter right...?" She fumbled through the pack and pulled out a dagger, the only weapon she had. She stared at the dagger, on how wonderfully crafted it looked. A gold handle with a ruby at the center of its hilt. She unsheathed it from it's golden cover to reveal an untouched, beautiful silver blade. She studied it for the time being, before lifting the tip of the dagger to her neck. She closed her eyes, tears swarming down her cheeks. But then, she dropped the knife and opened her eyes, staring at the thing for a moment. No, she couldn't do it. But she wasn't sure why, it would be over in seconds, but she just couldn't do it. "... I'm pathetic..." She whimpered. "So very pathetic and weak." Alice curled up into a ball and then just began talking in her head. If there is some sort of God out there. Or something whatever it is that can hear me. I know it's pathetic but please don't take Enethar away from this world. He's the only person who gave a shit about me. He doesn't deserve this. Please don't take him away. Please. She knew nothing would hear her, she was simply a stupid life form on this planet.

Viggo drank down the rest of the tea in the pot and coughed harshly. He got to his feet and dropped said tea pot into the sink. Deciding it was a bad thing that she had been shouting and sobbing, then she went so quiet, he went to her room and knocked on the door. "Hey, your Highness? Are you alright in there?"

"I'm not sure." She whimpered after a moment. "I'm not sure anymore if I'm alright." Alice hid her face in her knees. "... I'm planing to see Enethar soon." She said, muffled a slight bit by her knees. "When can I see him?" She looked towards the door.

Viggo was quiet for a minute. "Venus is down there now. She'll come and let you know when it's alright to go see him." He doubted it would be anytime soon. He had witnessed this procedure once before. It was a slow, problematic process. At least the poor kid was in a coma while it was going on.

"Ok." Alice said, lifting her gaze from her knees to the knife that she had dropped in front of her. She scooted away from it and turned her back towards it, hiding her face once more. Alice wasn't sure what was going on with her mind, she was losing it completely.

Venus eventually came back, and Viggo went over to her. She just shook her head, answering his silent question. "Give her some good news," he whispered fiercely. "I think she's about to explode. Or something. She sounds, off." Venus nodded and went over to the room. She knocked gently on the door. "May I come in?" she asked.

"I guess." Alice croaked, sitting in her corner and containing herself from complete mental destruction. She hadn't moved from her spot for about ten minutes as she stared at the knife she dropped on the floor. If she had gone completely mental she would have already slit her throat and went into the purgatory that is death. It was much better living alone and suffering that she let the only person who cared about her die... even if that was his job... die for the sake of his master.

Venus opened the door and was not exactly happy with what she saw. She followed the girl's line of sight, and the flash of metal on the floor was all she really needed to know. She snatched up the knife and shook it at Alice as if shaking her finger. "No! You don't think like that! This isn't going to help your friend at all! Understand? Things are grim, but what do you think will happen to him if you go?"

Alice didn't answer, now consumed with guilt. She turned away and looked towards her feet, hiding her face away and keeping herself from crying. But it seemed like she couldn't, some tears escaped but she remained silent. Honestly she had no idea how to answer it, what would Enethar think? Would he care if he died? Maybe... if it was his job to protect her from death, he would definitely get punished for not protecting Alice from death. She gulped a bit before looking back at Venus and backing up a bit more in her corner of guilt.

Venus sighed. "I'm sorry, I really am. But you need to try and hold together, alright?" She knew there was something deeper going on, but she was no psychologist. Still, she needed to try something, didn't she? "Why don't you, um, talk to me. What are you thinking about? Why would you even consider... that?"
