AM I DEAD? [action] [audio]
WHO: Lydia and whoever is around
WHERE: The Bay
WHEN: after midnight
WHAT: her first day at Genessia
When she finally woke up, her eyes were still heavy and it took awhile for her to blink the dreams away so she didn't realize that she was somewhere that was not her dark room at first. It was a little cold so she figured she had kicked her covers off again and tried to curl up to hold onto that last bit of warmth but her hands slid against something cold, something that didn't feel like her bed at all. Then she realized that the thing over her head wasn't the ceiling.
Her first official thought was that she was dead and buried and this was her coffin. It was brighter than she would have liked, so white. Her stepmother most likely had something to do with the design. How disappointing. For waking up in her own coffin, she felt unusually calm and was about to try and fall back asleep when the sound of water had her lifting her head.
That's when she sees the box. It doesn't look like one of her's, which makes her curious. Her first order of business is to open it and when she's gone through all the contents, she goes from curious to confused. And she thought she had known what to expect from Death. Gathering everything back into the box, she tests her coffin and discovers it's not much of one and she's not buried at all but sitting in some kind of weird cocoon in a cave of all places.
Creepy, Lydia thought with a grin as she began to venture out of the cave, picking the third doorway, box tucked to her chest. There were other cocoons in the cave but she was too shy and a bit apprehensive to check any of them. On her way out, she decided to try and give the walkie-talkie a try and see if her friends were around. It took her a few minutes but she was finally able to get it to work-
"Hello? Barbara? Adam? Are you out there?" The static response wasn't encouraging so she kept making her way down the watery hall, anxious and excited about whatever she might find.

"You can heal yourself?" Lydia was astonished and smiled. "How convenient." Wish she'd had him around when she'd fallen down the stairs and skinned her thighs. "Well I hope this Harry person isn't some sort of scammer. Think I've got enough of those in my life."

If only Saleh knew that she thought they were dead, he'd gladly correct her. He'd been dead once, and it...wasn't pretty.
"I mostly heal others...but I can heal myself if my injuries aren't too serious. Healing takes a great deal of concentration, so if I am too injured to concentrate, then I would need aid from another healer."
He gave only a slight smile back. Smiling was never his strong suit.
"Indeed. We'll see when we meet him."
