with knowledge comes great responsibility

[What an absolute ordeal all of that was.

Today was certainly one hell of a day, that's for sure; they've managed to take care of another Guardian and gain it's trust (or at the very least, something resembling it), they managed to find Candice and manage to...well, maybe not get her back in a state that's altogether wanted, but ensure they managed to get her at least into a place where she could possibly regain herself. It will likely be a process, as such things are, but they've done their best, and they should have no regrets.

The center is definitely going to be a welcome reprieve for all of their suffering, at the very least. The Kompot is certainly more than enough to likely get everyone warmed back up and in a stable condition, along with the copious amount of blankets the locals have provided. They've got the time to rest and get ready for their next adventure.

Rest well, ye merry band of travelers. You've earned it.]

...Yeah. There's no telling how long we'll be here.

[It doesn't sit right with him.]

[hyruglyphics]

No, not really. It might well be a lot longer than that, in order to accomplish what we've set out to do.

[fatalstrikes]

Saving this world's important. Even if we had the option of returning home early, I couldn't leave. It'd feel wrong leaving this world in this state.

[hyruglyphics]

I could not face Link if I did, so... likewise, I would remain.

[fatalstrikes]

It'll be tough, that's for sure. But we're going to find a way to help this world. We're a group of really stubborn people, so I can't see any of us giving up until we've fixed things.

[hyruglyphics]

I do hope that it does not fall solely onto us... that seems almost mean to this world, to not allow those from it to step up.


[ Though maybe they already did? ]

[fatalstrikes]

Cynthia's still around, and who knows if there are other people out there like her. We haven't run into all the gym leaders yet, anyway.

That's a good point, though. It'd be nice if they could help us - not just because we'll probably need the help, but because this is their world and I'm sure they want to save it themselves.

[hyruglyphics]

Exactly. ... And that is... well, it is the same reason I cannot help but believe we ought to save it on its own terms, if possible.

[fatalstrikes]

Yeah. We'll do what we can, and hopefully the people of this world will be able to help us out.

[hyruglyphics]

[ she nods in agreement, inhaling deeply to center herself.

Yes.

that will be their hope. ]
