[ It's been a long few days. Not nearly as long as it was for those on the draft -- a fact of which she is keenly aware -- but her heart feels so sore. Miyabi is dead, Kairi returned with a broken leg, Elicia reverted back to a little girl and left her that message that was so bittersweet... She feels a powerful need to find Nami and Sanji, to talk to both of them, but ... that ... maybe that should wait. Until she can look at them without crying... and comfort them, instead of being a burden. In the meantime, she needs to focus on something else -- actually put her energy into something useful.

An idea has been brewing in her mind for some time. And all of this mess -- all the pain and the fighting -- and Luke, coming to her just days before with a request -- has finally prompted her to act on it.

In her room there are quite a lot of books. They vary widely in subject, but there is one solid section dedicated entirely to medical texts, ranging wildly in their complexity. Teaching herself has been difficult; basic first aid is all well and good until you have to use it in an emergency situation, and anything beyond that...

Well. You just can't learn everything from a book. She knows that... has known for a long while she probably needed to do something like this. So when she opens up the journal, turning on the video function, she looks pensive.... but also quite serious. ]


Are there any doctors in the village who'd be willing to take on a student? I -- I know some magic methods of healing, but ... [ She shakes her head. ] I want to learn the real thing. I promise I'll work hard. Really hard. This means a lot to me.

[ A beat. ] And, if ... anyone in the village would like to learn some healing magic... [ She's already been teaching Haruhi, and now Luke. ] ... I'd like to help. I know some magic from my own world, plus I've got a lot of practice with Nala.

[ After that, a thought occurs to her. ]

Can I ask you something?

My name is Tia. I think it is truly wonderful you wish to learn such things.

I understand your feelings. I hate seeing people suffer and I hated that I could do nothing to prevent people from getting hurt in the draft.

I do hope I can be of some help there. My world doesn't have as much magic, so we did have to rely a lot on what we could make from things we could gather.

Enthusiasm is definitely a good thing. Do you have any particular time you wish to start with lessons? [And she's seeing all the other responses now too, well the non-filtered ones at least. Obviously Xion is well loved.]

I don't mind if a friend of yours joins also.

I can have something prepared by tomorrow then if you wish to get started that quickly. So I can better tailor it, how much knowledge do you have about herbs at this time?
