There have been a number of injuries related to the arena. I know that the challenge is one that many can't resist and the payout is good. But some of the wounds are disturbing to see and hear about. For those who need it, I have experience in healing. There isn't much I can do for broken limbs, save for setting them. Severed limbs will be a bit difficult as well.

But it is better than going back in, wounded and ready to collapse. If you need help, please come to see me.

If anyone is familiar with Arenan numbers or history, please contact me as well.

Quite a few, I think. It won't simply be the arena. The Arenans are very ruthless. A simple step out of proper behavior and they attack. What I would like is to study their poison a bit more. If they use it as a weapon against us, it could be enhanced to be even more deadly against them.

But I'm very rudimentary with these things.

Using their poison would be wrong. We shouldn't wish to harm them no matter their actions.
Not only that but it could jeopardise the mission.

[widow_of_the_crag]

I'm not certain. I wonder if it would be impressive to them? They seem to prize warriors and ruthless individuals. Honor doesn't exist among them.

[It's a bit strange to take this stance, given her earlier feelings about dishonest tactics.]

[heilt]

It exists amongst us. We shouldn't change that.

[widow_of_the_crag]

Honor is noble and I don't think it should be ignored, but I don't think it's wise to dismiss a method that could help keep us alive.

My husband was honorable and good. He was murdered by his own men.

[heilt]

This situation isn't the same.

I've sworn to do no harm. No situation will change that.

[widow_of_the_crag]

I understand that. I know what I am thinking is shocking.

For some, it might be their only protection, as they aren't skilled in combat.

[heilt]

If you're determined to do it you'll have to do it alone. I would still advocate not attempting so.

[widow_of_the_crag]

I understand. I know how badly it looks, but with the right methods, this is better protection for those who don't know how to fight.

I understand your convictions.
