The main hallways. Good. And the coast seemed to be clear, so far. Link briefly wondered if the new clue would help the situation, or only make it more grim. He would know soon enough.
For a time after he'd arrived, he'd kept himself against a wall, watching the other patients that came and went while keeping a calming tune in his head. He hadn't intended to observe for so long after arriving, thinking that everyone heading for the mentioned X-Ray room would have done so as soon as possible, but the time between passages was slow, and his mind was also on other things.
His hand was still rubbing at his numb arm as he waited, tune in mind, for some clear clue as to where he should go. The tingling had already spread well beyond the inflamed limb, but he couldn't very well poke at the other areas while still keeping his guard. That, and the rubbing was only helping insofar as keeping him a little calmer. Every now and then he thought he could feel something from the rub, though by this point he knew that kind of thinking was only wishful.
I cannot just stand here and wait! he told himself, frowning at his indecision and the lacking time he had. The night was never long, and he knew he had to get something done about this quickly before he got any worse.
Enough time had gone and though the patients had been few in number, he had seen most of them head well down the main hallway for the night. I suppose that'll be my course, he picked before finally leaving the wall and going on his way.
