It took abit of careful maneuvering but Adamar eventually was able to work his way below deck, Zahirah asleep and cradled in his arms. A smile formed on his lips as he moved into her quarters and gently placed her in bed, pulling a sheet up and over her body. He gave the sheet a few tucks under her before leaning down to kiss her forehead and pull a few strands of hair out of her face. His conversation came to mind with Jerrith as he stared at the slumbering beauty. The kid was probably right, she did stir feelings he hadn't felt in a long time... but was now the time? Questions for a different day.

He stepped quietly out of the room, choosing to bed down by himself for the night. No need for another incident like the night prior, else people might start to think he was slowly turning into some sleep walking monster. It was quiet below deck though he heard a few people talking in hushed tones as he made his way to the kitchen. The cook had already gone to sleep it seemed but that wouldn't be a problem as there was already a kettle of water warming on the stove. He pulled a small bag of tea out of his pouch and gave it another whiff, wrinkling his nose heavily at the overwhelming scent. “Red eyed rabbits, pft. Yeah right.” He laughed as he grabbed a cup and went through the easy task of brewing up some of Elora’s sleep tea. He moved to an empty chair, steaming cup in hand and took a seat. The first sip brought a cough out of him, the taste just as overwhelming as its smell. “Fel… that's strong.” He cleared his throat and continued the process of stomaching the tea sip by sip. “Ugh, that's just awful.” Five minutes passed when suddenly a wave of exhaustion washed over him like a tidal wave. “...woah, least it works.” He yawned long and hard as he moved through the ship towards his hammock. No sooner had his head hit the pillow did sleep overtake him. 

His eyes opened almost as soon as they had shut, the sudden scent of blood filled the area. “The... fuck?” Adamar climbed out of the hammock as a noise started to echo from somewhere even further below deck. Hop. Hop. Hop. “Hello?” As he moved into the common hall his eyes would be met with pure horror. Skulls lined the floor and blood streaked across the walls, and in the middle of it all... a small rabbit had his back turned to him. “Hey! Get outa here you little pest!” He picked up one of the skulls and hurled it at the rabbit, expecting to kill it with the effort. Instead the skull exploded into a powdery residue as it burst against the unmoving rabbit. It was quiet for so long, an eternity of awkward silence. And then the rabbit turned abruptly, glaring fiery red eyes into his soul. Its mouth opened to reveal rows of razor sharp teeth, a demons roar escaping its throat. “HOLY SHIT!” Nope, nope, nope! Adamar turned and sprinted out of the room, slamming into the wall as he made a sharp turn towards the ladder topside. He let out a scream as he turned another corner and there it was.... just sitting in the middle of the hallway. 

“Today vegetables..... tomorrow the world!” The rabbit said in a demonic baritone voice. “Vegetable. Vegetable. Vegetable.” Adamar found he couldn't move, his limbs all but made of lead. “STOP SAYING THAT!” He screamed as he suddenly looked down... he had no arms or legs. His lower torso had become an orange point as to his horror he realized it resembled a carrot. “Vegetable. Vegetable. Vegetable.” There were more voices now as the rabbits began to materialize through the walls and floorboards. Adamar scream died out when suddenly his mouth had vanished, a muffled cry echoing from his stomach. They turned him into a carrot and fell upon him with a ravenous hunger, tearing his orange flesh lose and splattering the walls with orange gore. “NOOOOOOOOO!”
