Reminiscing

Thalia was quietly sitting on the sofa.

Her room was mostly dark, with the only source of dim light coming from the holographic video projection in front of her.

She appeared to be heavily injured.

Her right arm was encased in a plaster cast, and a bandage was wrapped around the top of her head.

Although her alabaster skin was marred by several black-and-blue bruises, her tantalizing beauty remained otherwise unaffected.

She had been discharged from the infirmary not too long ago after receiving treatment from the medics for nearly a full day.

When the staff found her after the team test concluded, she was buried under a pile of rubble.

She sustained multiple wounds and had fallen unconscious due to oxygen deprivation.

Luckily, she wasn't trapped in that cave for long and was rescued just in time.

But her mood was not at all cheerful.
