Mourning Sickness

Mourning Sickness is the second chapter of Tales of Sheol'gotha:  Shadow of the Abaddon.

Synopsis
Palus awakens from a bad dream, rolling from his bed. A soldier enters, checking he is alright, and the disturbance also awakens the demoness in his bed. He dismisses the concerns, telling the soldier to leave abruptly, and as he moves around gathering his armour he finds the demoness at his back helping. He does not acknowledge her, leaving the room and heading for the one Valon's body is laid in, with Imma watching over him.

Haebin is also keeping watch and argues that Palus needs to stop brooding and get on with things, noting that there is a lot that needs doing - particularly if, as he suggests, Palus intends to forward their campaign and become abaddon. When Palus refuses to speak of it, Haebin instead mentions Soltas and how he has not returned since the night they took the city. He suggests that either Soltas did not survive Do'zen's Eye, and now walks among the Discantum Laimatus, or that he has not returned because he has abandoned them. Palus agrees on letting Haebin go and find him, but is worried that Imma heard their conversation and suspects them of capitalizing on Valon's death.
