I am concerned about Master Eunhyuk and his condition. He has told me that he has little hope of recovery... I am unsure if this falls under the purview of healing magic, but I had thought to broach the topic with you. [ glances at him ] Has he mentioned it to you?
...I suppose that makes sense, in an odd sort of way. [ respawning... ] At any rate. It is a very serious thing to consider, and one that require consent and trust alike, but it will work. Perhaps once our powers fully stabilize, so there's very little margin for error, but I'm not opposed to trying if he would like to.
Eunhyuk tends to be quite pragmatic, after all. [ a little twinkle in his smile, there. ] He may be more agreeable to it than most.
That he is. Though I suspect the fear of failure is what keeps him from seeking a solution for himself... To have one's hopes dashed can be just as deadly.
Well. I don't fail.

A revival takes twice as much mana as my most powerful spells, so it can be exhausting, compared to say, smiting something.

I see, this mana must be like the aether we have in Valisthea. It is the power source with which we are able to use magicks. But it is not something that exists within a person; we siphon it from the world around us and channel it through our bodies.
Regardless, I look forward to seeing your true abilities on display.

Very well. At your leisure. [ then, he kind of pauses, growing more serious ] Also, if I may... Temenos, have many requested the use of your magic?
no subject
Some, yes. But now that our abilities seem to be fully returned, I have a very large well to draw from. Why do you ask?

I'm familiar with it. [ but, he looks thoughtful for a moment, pondering. ] ...well. I can fix it, but you likely won't like how.
no subject
Oh?

Well. I am no apothecary - I would have to use my resurrection spell. That is to say, he would have to die, then be immediately revived by me.
However, my revival skill is strong enough that he would be cured entirely upon resurrection.
no subject
[ WELL ]
We have died multiple times while in Helly Belly as a cure for our injuries, so I cannot say it is an impossible solution.

That is true. Regardless, I shall discuss it with him and leave the decision in his hands.
no subject
Just let me know what you decide. I can only do so many revivals before I need a nap.
