[ when the feed comes on, riza's expression is tense. controlled. she's looking straight into the camera. there's an air of professionalism to her as she speaks, but that's to be expected.

she's lived through enough warzones, calamities, and nightmares to know how this goes. ]

My name is Riza Hawkeye. I know some of you, but-

[ not important. she blinks herself out of that. roy was always better at this, wasn't he? okay, breathe. ]

We need to regroup. I'm sure everyone has felt some part of what is going on, but things are getting out of hand. We can't turn on each other at a time like this, not with whatever is happening down below. I know a lot of us are scared, but if we're going to get through this, we need to pull together.

[ a beat, and then she exhales. riza doesn't look fantastic, honestly. she hasn't slept in who knows how long, and with everything going on around the ship?

but she's trying, that has to mean something, right? ]

Anyone who needs help, come find me in the lounge. I know basic first aid and can see what I can do. If anyone has any kind of healing abilities that are working? I can help with those too. I'm trying to collect what supplies we have, but help is appreciated.

I'll be in the Lounge if anyone needs to find me.

[ and then the feed cuts.

ooc timeline wise! this is happening semi-post the event log but pre the wrap-up log! meaning that people who went down in the first log can be back up, but all the dead bodies haven't made it up. she is open for network stuff but also if you just want to action meeting her in the lounge......feel free.

also.....no one has told her about roy yet so. that is open. c: ]

I am no healer, but I do know first aid and wound care. Until we've reached a decision on what to do with that creature down below... [It's obvious in her eyes: she wants it dead and gone.]

I will be right there. [She'll save any commentary on the first part for when they're face to face. What the hell happened up here while the rest of them...]

Understandable. The monster is another issue entirely, but taking that out is a priority just as much as this is.

[ she would be down there herself if she and roy hadn't decided to separate for this reason exactly. she nods once. ]

Do you have any materials? Not necessary, I'm just trying to figure out what we're dealing with.

Agreed. And a few I've had on me since we arrived that was not used down below, yes.

[We don't talk about the sudden arms shooting out of the walls, thank you. ...Or the "special eyes" wounds. Eugh.]

Poultices and the like. The healing potions did not last long.

[...Let's not talk of why that is. Instead she's walking in the direction of the lounge.]

If we had more supplies from the gardens, I could make a few more... though I fear I left whatever I collected from Akvos mostly in my room back at the temple.

Healing potions?

[ because, you know, that's a new one as far as riza's concerned. but the rest of what she's talking about makes sense, so it's easy enough to nod along. ]

There are plenty of materials back at the Temple that could help us here, but until we start carrying larger quantities of them on us at all times, it's not going to help. The medical supplies on the ship, too, are...different, but will have to do.

'Tis a fast-acting medicine that helps the body's natural healing process speed up while replacing any lost fluids. The higher the potency, the faster it works. Alas, I didn't have any concentrating agent on me when I arrived and I have no idea where to obtain more.

[The rest she's been able to find at least suitable alternatives that work near the same level, but not quite. ...This is why she shouldn't have let the Warden carry them in his pack, she swears.]

Indeed. What do we have here, exactly? [Best to be on the same page.] Ah, and you may call me Morrigan.

[Guess who has two thumbs and keeps forgetting to introduce herself.]

Is it something you could get at the Temple? Because that sounds extraordinarily useful.

[ she could think of a time (or ten) where that would be useful. maybe more than ten.

riza looks over her shoulder around the room, taking stock and trying not to feel disappointed at how much more they probably need. ]

We have plenty of bandages. Not nearly enough disinfectants. Some medications, but a limited supply. [ a beat, and then she exhales. ] Not enough, considering the amount of us who went under. But it'll do. And it's nice to meet you, Morrigan.

And you as well. [she pauses, considering the rest. If they'd had more time, then perhaps she could have grown more in the gardens they'd uncovered. She really wants to take some of the equipment from there for Reasons, however.] Indeed. I have much of the ingredients necessary there. Was talking with a few about setting up a greenhouse on the grounds to grow more in bulk, as well.

[She rubs along her forearm and her eyes narrow slightly at the memory of pure agony. The young witch had gone down there as well and it shows in her gaze.] ...And do remind me to carry more on my person right before the next jump.

[Morrigan frowns before turning a hall towards the kitchens and asking:] How much water and salt do we have remaining? We can likely create some wound cleaning solution even if it's a minute amount.

If you need more help with that, let me know. That's...important enough to make sure you can get. Depending on if we can get a process set up, it's something that should be brought along.

[ she sees the distant rubbing, the thought that crosses morrigan's face, and riza nods. ] I can do that, yes. With there seeming to be a pattern with these worlds, it's not a bad idea to remind everyone to bring provisions.

[ at the next question, riza shakes her head. ] I haven't been able to make it down there to check. We should have some, but I'm worried about dipping into the water supply. [ and then she sighs. ] But it might be worth doing, at this point.

We will see once we have returned, then. [~~Casually adds a name to the list.~~ She frowns, but nods.] Indeed. T'would certainly be more helpful rather than...this.

[Them running about with acute cases of paranoia and various injuries, whether they were inflicted by another of their own, themselves, or the creature toying with them.]

We may have to depending on how many injuries there are to treat. Infection kills more often than the initial wound.

[She doesn't like it either, but they have to make do with what they have. She kills the feed once she arrives at the lounge, carrying a pack she'd snagged from Akvos with a few bottles of poultice still within. She places it down on the nearest table with empty space and pulls the bottles out one-by-one.]

[ riza sighs. ] It would help with some of it, that's for sure.

[ paranoia and visions won't easily be cured with...whatever it is that she can make. but lessening the load in any way would help. ]

We haven't had any signs of infection yet, but I'd like to keep it that way.

[ riza is in the midst of unpacking another box when morrigan arrives, motioning over to which table to set the box and walking over once she's finished herself. ] Where did you say you found these?

Indeed. Unfortunately, I left my smelling salts elsewhere.

[If it was a joke or not, she won't say. She's had to fight simulacra of her former comrades and would rather not mention it.]

Hopefully we won't, especially with those who have healing powers here. [And she pauses to raise an eyebrow.] I didn't. I made these.

[Being a master herbalist has its perks.]
