[She takes another small bite of the apple while she tries to focus for more details.]

It might have been a couple of weeks before we went on our mission, actually. But... he seemed like himself, when I saw him before this. During the attack, he was very obviously different - his eyes were red, and there was this shadow behind him. It looked like a very large snake.

[thefinaljedi]

So, its something recent then.

[Luke scratches his chin]

I wonder what the catalyst was. I know it wasn't Helios' doing, but I somehow doubt the Malnosso were involved.

[wise_maiden]

He... did say something strange, now that I think of it. But I don't remember... what it was exactly.

[thefinaljedi]

Oh? If you remember, please, let me know.

Do you have any theories?

[wise_maiden]

No... not really. He implied that he had a connection to Helios, and that he had been sealed away for a long time, but... this goes into territory that I'm not familiar with, I'm afraid.

[thefinaljedi]

Right, Possession and Sealing aren't really my forte, either.

I understand that he was sealed again though, by some manner of god. So, hopefully thats the last we'll see of him.

[wise_maiden]

I hope so. [It's not the first time she's ended up on the wrong side of witnessing a friend or acquaintance being possessed by something out of their control.] I don't know how many others became involved, but... he must be wracked with guilt, as it is.

[thefinaljedi]

By my count? Several. My housemates, and House 44 residents seemed the primary targets. Though, I'm told Grune, Rei Hino, and a New Feather named Saori were involved.

As far as Helios goes, I intend to speak with him. And soon. Perhaps I can help him.

[wise_maiden]

It might help him to speak to someone not involved. He seems very burdened, at times, even if he pretends not to be.

[She takes another moment to try and eat more of that apple. Talking had been distracting; she was turning it over in her hands instead.]

[thefinaljedi]

Well, I certainly wasn't involved. I'll definitely make it a point. I...can relate, after a fashion.

[Not something he's talked a lot about, but Raine's smart enough to have figured it out, a bit.]

[wise_maiden]

I don't think it would hurt, in any case. Thank you.

[thefinaljedi]

Of course. I'm just trying to help out around here, since Ami-chan is missing.

[wise_maiden]

You've been very helpful. Although, I do have another question. This medicine... how many doses of it do you think are necessary?

[thefinaljedi]

Just one more. Tomorrow, around the same time, and that should be it. Its dangerous to overdose with.

[wise_maiden]

Understood. Hopefully I will be feeling stronger by then, at least enough to finish recovering at home.

[thefinaljedi]

Yes. I think so too.

[He smiles and stands]

I'll leave you to rest, I'll come check on you periodically, and call if you need something, alright?

[wise_maiden]

All right. Thank you again, Luke.

... And don't push yourself too hard, all right?
