Hi, what can I help you with?

It depends on the orb. It could be something easy and simple — but most likely it isn't. It could take some of your memories, transfer what ails Blue to you instead, take your eyesight...

[ She can't see the way the edge of Yzak's mouth tugs downward when she explains that. Transfer what ails him, huh. That would just switch their positions, put Blue in the place Yzak doesn't want to be and just keep their suffering the same. Not something he would agree to at all, if it came down to it.

He won't know until he's there, though, huh. And he'll have to be ready with this knowledge so his judgment isn't clouded in the moment. He doesn't want to make a choice that he, that they'll both end up regretting more.

It almost sounds like he stops responding with the stretch of silence that follows. But eventually his voice comes back through. ]

That leaves me quite a bit to consider. [ Which he will. And alone, but only for now. ] Including whether or not it'll be worth it, depending on what it wants. [ Though, barring a few things, there isn't much that wouldn't be worth it if it's being taken from him and him alone. ]

I appreciate the information, Viveca.

[ to help them, even if it's with something like this — answers that may or may not lead to something better. it's not her choice to make, in the end. ]
