A week after Whisper got wounded, Physicians decided that she was looking good enough to do the rest of the recovery in her personal quarters and free the hospital bed for someone else.
"But no work," the Chief Physician warned. "Stay in bed. I will arrange for a hospital Nurse to bring you food."
Whisper nodded obediently, but after being stuck inside the hospital for a week, she wanted to breathe fresh air too much.
Her wounds ached terribly whenever she moved. Even when Whisper flew, her wings pulled muscles in her shoulders that were wounded, bringing her pain.
Despite this, another day later, Whisper flew out of the bees' box and to the roof of the building Farini used as his temporary headquarters. There she sat on rough clay bricks, popular for buildings in this city. A patrol of Beemarines was flying over the other side of the roof, watching out for predators.
