If I were able I'd spend all my time at my lady's side, but neither of us can neglect our work, nor would we wish to. She is determined to find a cure to what ails those dear to us, and I am to see to the Gallows' security. It tears, though, to know that what is needed is healing, and to be so ill-equipped to aid in such things.

( She clears her throat. ) It is a foolish, self-indulgent lament. Pray forget I made mention of it.
