Dear Diary,
Everyone came back from war. Well, more or less. I was asleep when everyone returned initially, but I haven't been able to since waking up to the most terrifying scream I've ever heard. Since then it's been back and forth between my room and the lobby, trying to nap between the screams of pain. I want to ease their suffering, but I don't know how! I can't use conjury, every time I try, it fails. I can't heal, not really, anyroad, and never without Butterfly.
I can put a seal on a person's aether and save their life, but I can't even heal a paper cut without outside assistance. I aspire to emulate the scholars of Nym, but how bad of a scholar would I be that I can't even make someone feel better?
No. I'm going to figure out how to do it. No more moping. If I can invert and apply an aetherdam to someone else, I can find a geometry that will alleviate suffering and pain. That's what they'd do, so that's what I'm going to do.
