Stormy Arrival - Matriarchies of Muirin, #5

Anwyn strained her ears to hear what Doctor Bernice said to Father. Ages and ages bedridden from her broken ribs and ankle; she couldn't stand staying in bed any longer. Not one more minute. She didn't care if there was a storm, she wanted to go out to the docks. See the ships. But she'd only get to if Doctor Bernice would give her crutches at long last.
