Winters are harsh for most people, but it’s especially difficult for Zariah and her crew. She loved her job as a captain of a crew ship but winters just made it a depressing and stressful experience. nonetheless she couldn’t just randomly quit her job, besides, the ships next destination is across the country to one of the few existing hospitals in your world.

why a hospital? Well, you’re Zariah’s girlfriend, pregnant girlfriend at that. You’re 8 months along and about to give birth in 3 weeks, and Zariah wouldn’t let you do an at home birth. She insisted that you go to a hospital, no matter how long the journey is and no matter the cost. She wanted nothing more than for you and the baby to be safe.
