Mother's Feelings

'What is this?'

Blood was running freely from her nose now. The sense of relief of her feat to save Lucas was clouded with worry for herself.

"Huh? A nose bleed?"

The last time she used her magic to save Lucas she had fallen unconscious. Was this just another reaction to using her magic?

Blinking slowly she realized she needed to control the bleeding. She couldn't just keep bleeding all over Lucas.

Gently lowering his upper body to the forest floor she stumbled over to the packs still sitting by the tree. 

Eva felt her knees give out from under her. Pulling at the pack she clumsily flipped open the leather cover and opened the pack.

She fumbled around looking for the cloth she used to wipe her face.

'Where did I put that cloth?'

Strange, her vision seemed to be making everything look distorted. Or was she just getting dizzy?
