Re: Gordon (Sponge)
The purple haired woman sniffed the air.
"You are wounded," she stated plainly, nothing about the way she spoke suggested she was merely guessing at the bloody claw marks on his chest. "Alicia, bring gauze and ointments."
"Yes, Lauralie," came Alicia's answer, as she finished putting a kettle of water on top of a pot-bellied stove, fed with wooden logs. Between the stove and the fire place, the cottage was wonderfully warm compared to the damp chill outdoors.
"So. You have come at last," said the older woman, Lauralie, he guessed her name was. "Welcome to my home. What name shall I call you by? I already know where you come from - not of this world, for certain. No man could have wandered the road for long before the mists consumed him. Even you would have been lost, if not for my young apprentice." She laughed lightly behind closed lips and though she appeared blind, her clouded eyes seemed to stare right at him as though she saw more than even mere sight would allow.
