Searching for Stephanie
There was a soft flash of light in a corner of the cantina, and a tall woman appeared, her pale blue eyes scanning the room as she stepped forward on strong bare feet.

-Stephanie?- she called. -Are you still here? There are people who need healing, and stuff that needs fixing.-

"It feels like they can never go back.... But I knew that I was supposed to move them," she added at the end, still feeling the surety of that.

"No! I can do it!" Stephanie snapped. troy flinched, then nodded.
"Alright," he said softly. "I'll come too. Where did you leave them?"

"Good," Troy looked happier.

"That's when we begin the real healing," Stephanie whispered, eyes going foggy and distant. Troy winced, but nodded and looked at Scylla, silently urging her to not discourage Stephanie agian.

Then she envisioned the most injured of the team. There were four or five of them, and without help they'd be starting shortly on their last journies.
