I don’t mention that I feel sick, it started the night I got the Dark Mark, almost a week ago. The ceremony was on a Wednesday, we left for school on Sunday and today is Thursday. From the moment the Mark was burned into my skin it hurt, it kept burning, spreading through my arm. On Friday I noticed that the black veins were coming back, spreading out over my arm. Yesterday they came up to my elbow, starting from the bottom of the Mark. Luckily they don’t show on my hands, making it easy to cover up.
