Penny only managed to get some sleep before someone wakes her up again, announcing their arrival at Palmyra. Yawning, she tries to rub her eyes only to wince at the pain in her arm, reminding of the run-in with the Void. She sighs.

[color=39b54a]'And here I'd hoped it was just a bad dream,'[/color] she thinks.

Penny looks out to the city once they descend past the protective barrier, and finds the architecture (even in the low light) rather depressing.

[color=39b54a]"So there's the answer to 'what happens when you make a barracks into an entire city',"[/color] Penny quips. [color=39b54a]"And here I thought Ciscia's D-Fens Quarter was ugly and blocky."[/color]

When it's time for the tests, Penny is compliant despite her tired state, only too glad to get some proper treatment.

[color=39b54a]"Thanks, doctor,"[/color] she says once she's had her arm in a cast and shoulder set. She downs one of the painkillers with some water.

At the Academy, though, Penny gives an appreciative whistle.

[color=39b54a]"Well, at least this place looks good,"[/color] she says. [color=39b54a]"Too bad it's too dark to properly appreciate it. Probably look a lot better in the daylight."[/color]

Upon being escorted to their room, Penny thanks the escort for helping her carry her bags, and turns to Dana.

[color=39b54a]"Well, guess you're stuck with me, for however long we're here,"[/color] she says. [color=39b54a]"Just a few things I should warn you about; I don't snore... too loudly anyways, though unless you have a snore like an industrial drill, I'm fine with it since my family can be a bit noisy when they sleep - well, okay, LiznLiz sound like someone starting up a racecar. I don't cause a mess, always clean up after myself - being around four younger kids and two lazy older sisters makes me a bit of a neat freak. If I stay up late, it's usually to study, so I'll try to keep it quiet. Also, for the next few weeks you might find me hogging the bath for up to half an hour; we have a shower to share between nine people and someone always uses up the hot water before it's my turn, so I want to enjoy a hot bath for once.
