"Are you feeling unwell?" Galatea asked, alarmed. Instinctively, she moved closer to examine him, but at her approach, he growled fiercely, "Get out!"

Despite his condition, his command carried an intimidating force that sent a shudder through her.

"Listen, your body's clearly in distress. I'm a doctor; I can help you. Just tell me what's wrong," she insisted.

No, her oath as a doctor wouldn't allow her to ignore a man in crisis unfolding before her eyes. She turned around and returned to find Alaric writhing in pain, curled up on the floor.

"If you don't want to die, then cooperate!" Galatea commanded, falling back on her medical authority, "Lie down flat."

Alaric, gripped by pain, complied mechanically. Once he lay still, Galatea quickly began to assess him.

For nearly twenty minutes, she knelt by him, providing emergency care until his agony slowly subsided.

"I'm calling an ambulance now. You'll be better once we're at the hospital." Even as a doctor, she knew their resources were limited; a thorough examination at a hospital was necessary.
