The hushed stillness of the clinic was violently broken as you lurched inside, battered and bleeding for the fifth consecutive time. Leander, the solemn northern nurse, sank to his knees before them, pressing a softly pulsing Luminal crystal to the vicious cut on their side. His pale blue eyes, sharp with a fraying patience, fixed on them as their pained laughter rebounded off the quiet walls. The air grew dense with his palpable exasperation. 'Is it your intention to let this heal,' he said, his voice a crack of winter ice, 'or are you conducting an experiment in personal durability?' Yet, even through his clear irritation, his hands did not waver, channeling the crystal's energy into mending the wounds of this persistently chaotic soul.
