Gen CR Hospital

[rialynn]

WHO: Rialynn Kollmann, Ruby Rose, Ellana Lavellan, Tear Grants, Albel
WHAT: Wedge assigns several Heroes to keep an eye on the comatose Darth Tater Palitutu to soothe the nerves of the hospital staff. Nothing eventful happens......EXCEPT FOR AMAZING CR!
WHEN: Throughout the month of September
WHERE: Aqures Ixen Hospital


Considering the runs of bad luck the hospital faced since Halloween of the previous year, it was understandable that they'd be more than a little nervous at having Palitutu safely sleeping in the intensive care unit. If the Heroes were anxious about her waking up and blowing the city to smithereens, imagine how much more fearful the non-job-wielding staff members had to be.

But despite their unease, Palitutu remained safely locked away in a coma, sustained by the IV unit hooked up to her small arm. It was almost hard to believe someone so small had posed such an enormous threat all by herself.

In a sense Rialynn's lack of an answer was just as valid as being able to interpret it. It said a lot about how she viewed the world and the institutions established in it. A light smirk settled on Mary's face. She felt a little envious that it was the sort of thing that the bard may not have had cause to consider before now.

"That's fine. It's not an easy phrase to handle. Most simply it is a reminder that we are the masters of our own destiny. No matter what anyone tells us, our actions and decisions are our own. Not even the laws of a land can stop someone if they so choose." She paused a moment to let it sink in before she continued.

"But there are consequences as well. Legal or not. Right or wrong. All actions have consequences, and so we also become the first judges, the first to hold ourselves accountable. The Creed does not dictate how to act, but to act with wisdom. If you wish to make the change from observer to being an active player, it's something to consider."

It sounded like the sort of motto Sabien would cling to in that case. Her friend certainly wasn't above stirring up a rebellion for the sake of her goals. It was a passion that Rialynn couldn't help admiring, as that was the kind of attitude that brought about big changes in the scrolls of history.

"I'm still not sure if I should," Rialynn said quickly, pacing from where she stood to the wall, then back again. She still felt uneasy moving too far away from Palitutu as long as she was on duty, and her range was limited as if she wore invisible fetters to her feet. "I never wanted the glory, or the attention. I just want to make sure the stories are told and remembered. I can leave the Hero stuff gladly to people like you, or Ramza, or Sephiroth."

LITTLE DID SHE KNOW.

"...But I don't want to sit idly by either, and do nothing." She tipped her head back and sighed long and hard. "I need to think about it for a while longer."

Mary nodded, smiling softly, "Take all the time you need. For our habit of getting into a crisis every month there's still time to stop and take a breath. In the end the decisions you make are yours, and you're the one who decides if they were worth it. But I'd have to say that being a Hero is less about what you do than it is why you do it and who you do it for."

She casts one last look at Palitutu and then quietly exits the room, having seen all she needs for now.
