There are two parts to this post so I'll try to make it short and to the point. Here's the scenario:
The story is set in a sort of medieval world. The heroine's home is attacked and set on fire. She gets caught in the blaze and suffers severe burns across her left shoulder, arm, back, that general area. What I'm wondering is:
The story is set in a sort of medieval world. The heroine's home is attacked and set on fire. She gets caught in the blaze and suffers severe burns across her left shoulder, arm, back, that general area. What I'm wondering is:
- What type of treatment would she need? What type of treatment could she receive in a medieval style world?
- What sort of scars would she have? What might they look like, feel like?
- How long would it take for the burns to heal? How long would the burns still pain her? Could they hinder her movement?
- What other injuries might she receive from the fire? (Damage to her lungs from the smoke? I don't know. *shrugs*)
- Is there a type of amnesia that actually works like this, or is similar to it? How similar? What other affects might there be?
- How do people in real life get amnesia? How do they recover from it?
