Sakimi had caught red-eye disease.
"Sakimi..." I said.
"D-don't w-w-worry about me," she replied.
Dammit. How did this happen?
Maybe one of the others was also infected. But in that case, they would have shown symptoms sooner than Sakimi.
This means that Sakimi must have caught red-eye disease while we were still on the ship.
"Stay put," I said. "I need to call the others."
And so, I woke up Amaranth, the captain, Sothis, and Walter, and I explained the situation.
"I'm going to have to fly to Puratorius as soon as possible so that I can cure Sakimi. Who else wants to come with us?"
The others glanced at each other. Since I could only take one more person, Sothis and Walter didn't want to leave each others' side. As for Amaranth, she wanted to stay since she's a cleric who could heal wounds.
This only left the captain, who raised his hand and said, "I'll go."
