Everything hurt. And why was the room moving? Aeolian came awake slowly, her thoughts jumbled. She remembered the thrust of Oomen's knife, but Kaz had returned for her. They must have made it onto the Ferolind.
"Nin's," she croaked. Her throat felt dry like it was coated in wool.
Nina blurted. "Oh, Saints, you're awake!" And then burst out crying.
Aeolian tried to sit up, but could barely lift her head.
Nina said. "Don't try to move, just rest."
She wiped her tears and offered Aeolian a tin cup full of cold water. She sipped carefully, letting Nina hold her head up.
"How long was I out?" Aeolian finally asked.
"Three days, almost four. Jesper is driving us all crazy." Nina stood up abruptly. "I need to tell Kaz you're awake!"
She grabbed Nina's hand. "Not now."
Nina sat back down, her face puzzled. "Sure."
Nina thought, the first thing the Shu girl would do when she wake was ask for Kaz, but she had been wrong.
"Do we know who came after us at the harbour?" Aeolian asked slowly.
"Pekka Rollins. He hired the Black Tips and the Razorgulls." Nina responded. "And Oomen's dead. Kaz killed him."
