Tendrils From the Past 2(Ch.84)

~If you want the present to be different from the past, study the past~

-Baruch Spinoza

Andronika's eyes fluttered open with a quiet gasp of pain. Through her blurry vision, she could take in the hazy forms of a good number of people within her quarters. Andronika shut her eyes, shaking her head slightly to clear her vision but immediately stopped and released a quiet groan of pain at the splitting ache in her head and the throbbing pain from her side.

"Armuke!" Annia exclaimed, rushing to Andronika's side and grabbing Andronika's hand in concern. Andronika released another groan as the loud voice increased the pounding of her head.
