Greetings, Audentes. It is I, Sieglinde Sullivan- also known as the Green Witch. I am sure you are occupied with your own matters during this valuable personal time, but I must interrupt for three announcements, if you might lend me your ear.

The first is that Date Masamune, one lord of Oushuu, has been transferred to a different team. I know that not many of you have been with us since Chantes, but he was a valuable team member, and he will surely be missed.

[By her, perhaps most of all, but she manages to keep a straight face, hastily moving on.]

The second is that it has come to my attention some of our members come from worlds where literacy is not as prominent. Access to book learning is one of the most important aspects of an education, so I shall be using some of my time here in Oska to improve this situation. I am able to instruct in multiple languages, but I shall be focusing primarily on what many worlds call English, as I found it the most useful for communication during the period when our translators were defective. You may join open sessions in the castle library each day from an hour past noon.

On that note, thirdly, I need your assistance with one of those new pupils. As much as I prefer to work alone, I am afraid this issue deals with a delicate combination of spellcraft and science, and so I shall be opening up this project to others of like intellect hopefully differing experience. Graham, if you would like to say a few words?

[She reaches forward to turn her magitech brooch. revealing a certain rugged Huntsman. Said huntsman, for his part, was listening. Which explains why his first word seems more relevant to her second announcement than her third.] ...Pupil? [He's aware that means student, and feels as if he might have to explain to Sieglinde he can indeed read and write... though perhaps his handwriting leaves something to be desired...

That can be a conversation for another time, however. There's more important matters at hand to discuss now.]

Those of you present in Perdition's Rest might recall, I have been heartless for a long time. I've asked Sieglinde to help me try and find some kind of solution, though it occurred to me the secrecy didn't aide in finding a solution. [Talking to Koltira had reminded him of how much more he could do. He owed it to himself, and perhaps those who cared about him and wanted to connect to him better, to do all he could instead of asking Sieglinde to do it for him.] If you think you might be able to lend aide, or have any questions about my condition, I'm here to answer them. Even if there's no perfect solution, I'd ... I'd like to feel things, again.

[Feel things properly is perhaps the better way of putting it, but considering this is a great deal more than Graham tends to talk already, he nods and indicates that's all he has to say, and Sieglinde takes back the video.]

How anyone capable of lending a productive hand could deny such a sincere appeal I do not know. I have seen we have new recruits among us, so we look forward to hearing from you if you have experience with medical surgery, curses, or other magics.

Thank you.

At this point, I'll consider anything. If there's an answer to be found, I don't intend to miss it for lack of curiosity.

( and there were plenty of possibilities, practically more than he could wrap his head around. anyone that thought they could help, he'd give them the chance. his odds were best that way. )

I am not particularly busy, whenever we are in Oska. If anything I have too much free time. Whenever you like.

I suppose that makes sense. I will do everything I can to help, I promise you that.

[ Because any chance he can get it worth it. Even if she ends up pouring herself into a million books to study outside of areas she's studied before. She's probably close to the end of med school level wise anyway... if her ability in other subjects is to go by. It's just a matter of going into the specialised areas and studying until her eyes feel like they'll drop out. ]

I must say though, you both picked a good time for that reason I think. We have some resources here for those who need to touch up their studies... though I admit I had already started refreshing my memory before this was mentioned. It will make things easier. Perhaps tomorrow? If you are free then? The sooner the better, I think.

In the meantime I can prepare what I remember of my experience to compare.

( one would think, after a point, he'd grow more accustomed to the easy nature members of ALASTAIR seemed to offer aide and support. so far he hasn't reached it. his experience with humanity has never been so magnanimous as he's found them to be here. )

I appreciate any help you can give, though remember I function quite well without. Don't push yourself further than required.

( he's already seen Sieglinde do that, he's not going to try and instigate that same kind of fervor in another. )

Tomorrow will be fine, certainly. Tell me when and where and I will be there.

[ Her own hasn't either. Even before everything happened to her, her country was constantly struggling against terrorist attacks and coup d'etats that she doesn't really know a life outside of it. Especially as a member of the royal family there. She was abducted and used as a hostage twice as a child, nevermind all the brainwashing that came later. ]

I promise to be careful. [ Though in a sense, she's from the same type of Sieglinde and it works as a distraction for her as well. ]

Perhaps before lunch? The medical centre will be fine. I can meet you there.

( he will have to hope she means that. he's seen Sieglinde push herself more than too far to try and help him and others, and as much as he'd like to keep anyone else from doing the same, he can't quite stop it, either. a hope is all he can do. )

All right. I'll see you then, and... ah. Are you opposed to wolves?

( just an innocent inquiry, obviously, not weird at all to ask that! )

[ Well she's almost been close to passing out on the library table before, but at least she remembers to eat. It's more that she has nightmares still as well, it's just better to use her time that she's stuck awake well. ]

Wolves? Not at all. [ A beat, then: ] Do you have one?!

I wouldn't say I have one. He's free to do as he pleases. He pleases to be around me on a fair amount of occasions, though.

( his wolf brother does choose to hang out with him sometimes, which is really quite kind of him if you think about it. )

That is close enough, I think. I would be happy to meet him, in that case. [ Her hand even covers her heart as she says this, almost like she's swearing on those words. ] I shall see you tomorrow then.

I'm sure he will be happy to meet you as well.

( Brother is more social than Graham himself half the time, this is not an understatement.

he nods at her promise and closes the feed. he's still got to work on actually saying his goodbyes out loud, oops... )
