  1. She felt like she should react as if she got shut the hell down, but honestly? Madison was too tired to care.

    "S'what I get for browsing tumblr, looking for something, anything..." Her voice trailed off. She was only going to get embarrassed even more, so she let the joke die on her lips and disappear into the air.

    Madison closed her eyes once more and took a deep breath. The druid could already feel the call of the Emerald Garden. So much to explore, so much to learn... And finally, it was within her grasp... All that hard work, all that research, all that traveling... All the deals she had to cut, the rituals she performed...

    The incessant beeping of her health meter was the only think keeping her from drifting off into slumber.

    Madison slowly, shakily reached up with two fingers and pressed them against her temple. One by one, the glowing text and colored bars of information hovering in her vision faded away.

    She needed to take a deep breath before she could find the energy to speak again. "Y'know," she started, pausing to let the soreness in her body die down, "while you were in the coffin? Those last couple minutes?"

    A thin smile creased her face. "I did it. I finally did it. The Emerald Garden. I went there, Lucia... Got the strength I needed to help you..."

    A soft chuckle escaped Madison's lips, followed by a harsh cough. She turned her head and covered her mouth with her hand, hoping there wasn't any blood. That would've sucked.

    The plague witch shifted her weight a bit on the dead grass, searching for any amount of comfort while Lucia held her. "I'll brag about it later. Right now, I need some rest."
