PSL - Aqua | Helen Magnus ---> weary traveler rest your head

[lifelines]

Life had not been kind to any of them lately. Having just returned from a trip that had gone horribly wrong -- and yet could have been even worse -- Helen was not quite up to her normal self yet. Will had his own suspicions now, especially about what she was hiding and how much it was, but she couldn't say anything about it. Not yet.

She was just doing what she normally did: Avoiding people and doing her best to keep completely busy. The last thing she needed was to spend too much time thinking while her ribs healed. She hadn't gotten as addicted to the water as Will had, but neither had she gotten out unscathed. Things were difficult, tense even, at the moment. She had faith they could make it through; she just didn't know how long it would last.
