Super Hero Mage Suit

In the morning, I got word from Grandpa that preparations for the journey to Andalusia were almost complete. 

As the nurse applied more tinctures and ointments on the last of my more serious wounds, I looked at my reflection in the mirror and grimaced. 

How in the world I had managed to convince Malafar that I was a queen was beyond me. 

Although I was healing quite well, the swelling was nowhere near normal levels, my face was every shade of the rainbow. 

I looked like a pending court case of spousal abuse although any of my three spouses would have had a heart attack if anyone had so much as hinted at such horrific conduct on their part.

"I am going to be having lunch with my Grandpa and I don't want to cause him any worries.  Do you have any makeup that would cover the worst of this bruise?"  I asked the nurse. 

"I thought you'd never ask," she smiled.  "Let me take care of it."
