The past two weeks brought about a singular purpose: find a solution and execute it. So long as the solution was effective, Melody didn't quite care for the aftermath. Every answer she found shared common themes of heavy cramping and bleeding, the one she had just taken was known to lead to severe fatigue as well. With any luck, though, she would manage through the next few days and come out the other side unscathed. Hopefully they weren't too late.

Melody placed the empty vial on the table with a heavy hand and moved to sit on the bed. Already, she could feel the beginning twinges of her menstrual cramps. Somehow, though, she doubted these would be as mild as those.

She rubbed her eyes tiredly and turned to face him. "It...it's supposed to dissolve the —" baby. Despite being certain of her decisions to rid herself of the pregnancy Melody couldn't help the wave of emotions at the thought. One potion, one foolish fear, had just murdered their baby. "The effects should be at their peak anywhere between an hour and a half a day from now. It reacts differently with every pregnancy." Her voice was quiet and sad, the weight of their decision obviously sitting on her heavily.
