_____Hovering over Jasper, she placed her hand on his forehand for the sixth time in an hour as though she were going to find that the fever he had come down with broken and gone away. It comforted her a little bit to know that he was asleep, but at the same time he had shivered and cried out from time to time. Whether or not he was dreaming was lost on her, though occasionally his expression changed to something else. Somewhere on the other side of the room to her back, Laruku had been just as silent as he could have been. But she hadn't made a sound for him to react to and he only shuffled unknowingly when she had come in.
_____The only things Corona had been doing for the past hour was encourage them to sleep and to be still. She reapplied the damp cloth to her younger siblings forehead and stroked his head for a moment thereafter, wishing there was something more she could have done. The vials that she had brought earlier were now empty, the weird concoction of herbs and roots that had been boiled and given to them had for the most part kept them calm. Treating the symptoms had been the best thing she had come up with so far, but even at that it was only minor help. It didn't totally alleviate their problems, it wasn't the miracle cure that she wanted to find.
