(((Aw, poor Jessy. How will you live? ;D)))
"Great," I muttered. "And I thought I had bad luck with a ribs lately. Come, Jack. I've got a poultice that'll help."

"It's just a broken nose," I said off handedly, revealing my violent past. "I mean, sorry, that was heartless."

I followed and watched Doc set the poultice. "You do a good job," I noted.

"You've seen how injured I get during a fight," I said. "I have to be good."

I had finally managed to get Twaney off me and I headed to where Doc was.
"Um..." I started, hesitantely.
"Yes?" Doc asked.
"You gave me this before... I was wondering... could you give us a place to sleep?" I showed him the card that he had given me before.

"You need to ask," I said. "This place only just opened. Plenty of room. Pick one."
"Ow."
"Ah, quit bein' a baby, Jack," I said, finishing with his nose. "Done."

"I wasn't being a baby." I said. I held up my fingers where my book was dangling. "It bites hard and it has teeth." I said. "Don't ask me how it got here."

"Right," I said. Then I had a thought. "Ask it if there's a way we can tone down these...screeches Twaney hears. It's not good for a kid like her to be subjected to that."

I looked at the book. It opened to the first page nd remained blank. I look at it. I tried to pick it up but it snapped at me. "What the...?" I tried to get closer but it snapped again and growled. "Hmm..... That's never happened before."

"Oi," I said sharply, looking at the book. "Behave. I have a lighter and some petrol around here."

The book growled at Doc. I looked at it. "Hey it has writing on the page!"

"A fool's guide to castle life." I read. "Chapter one: Though you stare you cannot see, what it is I'm meant to be; Look not with your eyes, for though your blind, the answer lies within your...." I looked at Doc. "A riddle?"
