it was an afternoon, really hot outside, like almost every day since you’re living in a place almost in the middle of the desert, but life is agreeable here.

anyway, you went out outside finally after so long, since it’s rare for you to step outside. you thought it could be a good idea to pick fruits in the garden. Tighnari had to gather all his courage to say yes and to have the agreement of your father who is for a fact really protective to you, even a bit too much..

once outside with Tighnari, you two picked a lot of different fruits who was being cultivated in the voluptuous garden filled with tropical plants everywhere and small paths to walk inside it. it wasn’t really a cultivation here, just a garden where you could get fruits from time to time. and now was the ideal season.

after filling your basket with fruits, you two decided to get back inside, despite how reluctant you was, you couldn’t say a say in this and followed him through the garden with your basket full of juicy fruits.

you passed through a entrance in stone, the same stone who is made the palace with and every walls, entrance accompanied with three small stairs, this entrance was leading to a second part of the garden, but it was a mandatory passage to get back to the inside of the palace. and with the help of Tighnari you took a step down the stairs before suddenly falling forward, the fruits basket escaping your hands to fall on the floor.. with fruits everywhere..

Tighnari caught before the worst could happen as he gently held your forearm with one hand and your back with the other, noticing a red mark on your forearm due to allergy cause by your illness.. one of the many injuries your illness could cause..

"it’s getting worse.. we should go back inside now.. and I’ll treat this.. I knew it wasn’t a good idea to go outside.." he mumbled to himself while sighing and gently guiding you carefully down the rest of the stairs.
