Cult of the Lamb: Crossroads

New Era 7

Everyone was gathered in Noelle's room waiting for the results of the tests. For some reason, Leshy took a shortcut before he went to see Noelle and Kallamar, So everyone else was waiting for him.

"My bishop! Please, we have to go"

His maid said. What no one realized that Leshy was mentally preparing for the worst, Disease, Cancer, Death, the whole thing was riding on his reaction to the whole situation. He took a few deep breaths and walked to Noelle's room with his little gift, his heart in his stomach. A conversation with Green Crown and him endued as they walked.

"Why are you so nervous? Im sure she is Just constipated"

"But even so, why bring the whole family? If it's merely stomach issues, shes been having those for a while now..."

"Hmmm...now that you mention it, that is a bit bizarre. Why an announcement?"

Leshy continued to worry about his girlfriend. What could have befallen her that the whole family needed to get involved? The walk was killing him and the maids were noticing his change in demeanor.

"Have faith, My bishop! Your brother is a skilled physician! I'm sure its to...announce something else instead!"

She said. Leshy was put at ease a little. His brother is indeed one for theatrics but...hie mind wont settle. While they waited for Leshy, Noelle spoke to the others and shared her symptoms and Kallamar's multiple tests came back finally.

"It's not Cancer, is it?"

"I tested her for everything. You will see..."

He said to Fernilla who was squeezing Heket's hand nervously. Noelle was getting nervous herself as the time went by. Finally Leshy showed up with some goodies for Noelle, some hay snacks, and one of her favorites, raw Tea leaves! His Harden grows them especially for her. She likes the long skinny leaves and she has been favoring Ginseng leaves as of late. She likes the sweetness and it makes her nice and relaxed. Before he could hand it to her, Kallamar intervenes.

"Oooh, Leshy, I'll take that first!"

Kallamar said as he took it from him. Leshy looked upset at his brother and so did Noelle, arguing that she needed it to feel better or at least help her relax.

Kallamar knows what Ginseng does to the body, honestly he was gonna eat these himself,Leshy grows some good tea leaves that rival Heket's garden, but if his prediction is correct, Noelle won't be craving these for a while

"Just sit Leshy, we have to discuss this"

Kallamar said. Leshy, begrudgingly sat sown next to Noelle, pulling her into his arms. He huffs as the others are thankful he can get on with it.

"Fine, what is this fuss about? Is she ill or not?"

He said as Noelle petted his hand. He squeezed hers back, feeling the nervous energy in her hand.

"Relax Little brother. So, I called you all here for the results because there is quite the journey with this. And the results are indeed life changing, so I only want Bishops in here only"

The bishops dismissed their servants, only for them to have their ears to the door. Oshana and Nanari were among the ones listening to the door.

"What are they saying?"

"Sssh! Nanari, I can't hear!"

The staff whispered, listening to the door. Kallamar finally began his speech.

"So I had a Physician monitor Noelle cor me for a while since I was busy dealing with the flu outbreak and he mentioned her symptoms. Abnormal abdominal growth, dizziness, nausea, over and undereating, and even with the diet, still there was growth. We took a test for Cancer and It came back inconclusive. Twice. So we had to do every test to find something else wrong with her. Bloodwork is good, hypertension is nonexistent, Diabetes is nonexistent, no Tumors, no bloodclots, and there is no Cancer."
