It was strange, how easy it was to get into a routine again. Then again, with something like the infirmary, Isla hadn't exactly had to go far to make it feel like home. Injured people just tended to turn up there. In the weeks since their arrival in Caido, however, she'd succeeded in cleaning the place up and making it comfortable and warm, had recruited a few other medics and healers and had begun to build a respository of equipment, medicines and tools. It didn't feel quite as urgent as when they had first been dropped here. Isla the flesh is weak |

Practically growing up in the army, fighting that never ending war that seemed to rage on in Northwind meant that Kaladin picked up a thing or two. He was far from being a medical professional but you didn't last long on the front lines if you didn't learn how to tie a tourniquet or how to do a quick suture of a wound.
Since arriving in this new world the young man had kept mostly to himself, which also meant that when he got hurt or sick he treated it himself. Bumps and bruises were easy, what had happened to currently wasn't. After their failed attempt at exploring the ruins Kaladin had decided that perhaps going solo to explore would prove more fruitful. Sure it meant less firepower in a fight but it also meant less of a chance at getting seen by anything. Well, at least that was what he had told himself. Kal wasn't quite sure what had attacked him, even with the lantern he had brought with him this time the lighting was still poor in the deeper levels. It was vaguely animal shaped yet much stronger then any animal he had come across. It hadn't been a tough fight, at least not for the beast. Kaladin now hobbled over to the local healers hut, his one remaining human arm drenched in blood, his chest a criss-cross of torn flesh. His breathing was labored yet other then a few grimaces here and there he made no acknowledgement of his sorry state. He had heard that the woman who ran this clinic or hospital or whatever they wanted to call it had been a northhavener, he didn't recall ever meeting the woman personally but had heard she was at least competent. Pushing his way in with out preamble he sat at the nearest open table, telling one of the attendants to fetch the head physician. the Remedy

It wasn't long before an attractive young blonde woman to make her way from the back to see him. He supposed that the apprentices or whomever they were weren't use to seeing a man turned to ribbons come strolling into their shop.
She spoke softly and her smile was her attempt at being encouraging despite the mess that had suddenly plopped into her lap. "Well, I walked all the way here just fine. I'm sure I can manage walking into the other room." His typically gruff voice came out in a raspy whisper as he forced himself back up to his feet. Another small intake of breath, another quick grimace of pain. His right arm made a 'lead the way' gesture, the metal winking in the candlelight. "Hopefully you're as good a healer as rumors suggest, I didn't fancy my chances if I tried doing something myself." He said hobbling along to the room she would lead him too. the Remedy

Isla lead him to one of the small rooms off a main hallway. Despite what the room had likely seen in its day it looked clean and well organized, various medical instruments gleaming in their drawers. He made his way to the small bed in the corner and with a ragged cough he plopped himself down on it.
He shifted himself to allow better access to the wounds in his arm and attempted a chuckle, though it came out more as a watery gurgle. " what's a little more pain to go along with what I'm already dealing with?" He asked though still would inadvertently hiss in pain once she started to clean the wound. At her questioning he shrugged the metallic arm, "just fancied a stroll in the ruins, turns out there are some big an nasties down there that don't like it when you go nosing about. " he nodded at his wounds, "left me a bit of a parting gift as I made my way back up to the surface. Hope you're not Squeamish doctor." He said before breaking out in a racking cough. the Remedy

Kaladin nodded at her comment "true I suppose. Then again some of the doctors we had on the front lines during the war seemed to faint at the mere thought of blood." He looked thoughtful for a moment, despite the blood still welling out of various wounds. " then again, all those boys had been conscripted into the medical core so it isn't such a surprise that they had been terrible at it."
He watched as Isla dabbed at the cuts on his arm while assessing him. She was attractive, with long blonde hair and a lightly tanned complexion. "How's a pretty lass such as yourself come to wading elbow deep in other people's guts? Surely some pretentious nobleman would have tried snatching you up by now?" Kaladin asked before another series of coughs interrupted him again. Once they had subsided he lifted the metal arm to whip the blood and spittle from his mouth. He chuckled as she gave her preliminary assessment "the rest of me is a bit more royally fucked, I didn't need to come to a doctor to tell me that." He said though for once his tone was good natured, perhaps it was the alcohol he had drank to help dull the pain and keep him from passing out. "I need to know if you can fix me" he took a deep breath several times pain flaring each time he inhaled. "Bugger that hurts" He said wincing. the Remedy
