Liberte' wakes in his bed, much to his surprise. His head throbs and his bladder aches. With great effort, he manages to free himself of sheets wrapped up into his clothing and armor. He moves slowly from stiffness. He walks to the corner of the room and undoes his britches. Taking aim at the large porcelain pot at his feet, he lets loose a stream that rings with satisfaction. His head rolls back and eyes close, the mixture of headache and relief is bitter sweet. The warrior begins to sway a bit, and the ringing is replaced with splatter against the floor. He quickly corrects himself with a minor shift.
Time disappears as he reaches the end and shudders uncontrollably with one last burst. He smacks his lips tasting his dry lips and mouth. Wandering over the the wash basin. He grabs the water jug and drinks greedily. Some of the water splashing on his front. He uses the rest of the water with a pour into the basin. Grabbing handfuls of water, he splashes his face. Dampening a cloth from the rack, He quickly wipes away the night's sweat with the wet rag.
Liberte' was feeling better but his head still throbbed. He takes a handful of mushrooms and waits for the warmth to wash away the pain. He notices the letter at the door. He takes it and reads.
It's too early in the morning for math
He didn't have the luxury to turn down a job. However much his end ending up being, it was more than zero. Liberte' straightens his dress and grabs several sugar beets that he keeps in a crate in his room. He starts eating into one while heading down to Sebastian's stall. He spends the morning hour brushing him and feeding him beets and oats.
He arrives shortly after Dharakk, while riding Sebastion and squinting against the noonday sun.
