We should have never done this.
I use all of my strength to lift Naomi onto my bed. It's a struggle, they won't stop thrashing, but I can't just keep them on the floor.
I try to sing something.
Try to heal them.
Naomi calms, lays still.
But it's not working, those crystals aren't going away, they aren't shifting, what's wrong with my magic?

"I'm surprised they're able to breathe."  A voice comes from behind me. I don't need to turn around to know that it's Ydris. Since when was he invited?

I sigh and step away from Naomi. "What do you mean? Is the crystal that deep? I.. I tried to heal them.. It didn't work."
In the hallway, Evergray looks at Avalon who looks at Fripp. They were supposed to help. Someone is supposed to help. Stop standing there and help us!

Ydris squints at Naomi and nods. "As well as the one either piercing or covering their eyes. I can likely remove the shallow crystals cutting into their arms and legs and whatnot, but..."
He pauses and looks them over again. "There is no way to safely remove the crystals on their face and neck."
Why is he the only one attempting to do anything about this?

Alex turns from James to me and Ydris.
"What, so they're just going to be blind forever?"

Rania clears her throat.

"Oh-"
