Chapter 23: Fighting for the life

Felix heard screams, and then looked in their direction. They were like the screams of somebody who was dying, and he didn't know if he could keep in the quarantine area. Deciding that he could always treat the person from dragon pox later, he stood, and rushed towards the source of the screams.

When Felix neared the sick area, he saw a pool of blood at the entrance. He followed the blood, and saw a man, who was trying to saw off his own leg.

"By Harika," Felix could see that the blood was too much, as the man continued on. The bunny shifter rushed to the man's side, and took the saw out of his hands. "What are you doing? Why are you sawing off your leg?"

"It is cursed," the man said, which came out like a yell. "And the healer won't heal me."

Felix looked at the deep gash on the man's leg. He could see the bone, but there were no marks on the leg. Apart from the marks the saw had left.
