Dire Need

Lifen didn't feel the cold, her panic making her nerves numb. "M-my mother. Please! She started coughing! A-and blood...." she knew she was incoherent. She stopped and took a deep breath as tears fell down her cheeks. "My mother started coughing up blood. She can't breathe. Please help!" she finally managed. Though the deep breath helped her get her sentence straight she was obviously still in distress.

She didn't even know if this girl was a healer, but she was the closest member of the water tribe. She could either help her mother or definitely help find someone who could. She just prayed to the spirits that she had been lucky enough to find a healer, and not just some random citizen. The more time she spent looking for a healer, meant the closer Lien came to death.
