Lights Out:Muse cannot see.
Nala is working in her lab as usual, toiling away the time while Lynxin slept within the small crib The Lynx had bought for her to keep close. He was such a little bugger, curled around a stuffed elekk and snoring his little baby lungs away. Couldn't help but love the adorable little thing more and more with every day that passed.
She leaned in with her soldering gun, aiming to seal the final wire in her newest com box she had been giving to her outpost for ease of orders when suddenly her good eyes vision blinked and faded away.
No...this can't be happenin'! Ya're panickin', it's fine. Ya' probly just fell asleep or somethin' an are stuck in a state of mental awareness...right?
She waited for a moment, sitting up on her stool so her back was straight. Both eyes were open and yet all she saw was darkness.
Okay this isn't a dream...I can still hear Lynxin. Oh gods...oh shadows...this can't be happenin'!
Her hands moved to pat around the table in front of her until she found her rag and reached up to rub it at both of her eyes.
She tipped and the last thing she heard was the cries of her startled son and the sound of the door flying open.
((No, she wouldn't handle losing the sight from her only good eye well. Being totally blind would make her -completely- useless and a no bueno life for her.))
