a question for everyone on the network [video]
Apparently there's something called psychology. And applying it is tricky, because of cultural differences, and such. Yes?
If there's one thing we have in abundance, it's cultural difference. So it might not be so simple to offer psychological help at our clinic.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't try.
But an incompetent healer can cause damage, or exacerbate it, and that's the last thing I want.
So. [The preamble having been finished, he leans back in his chair.] Exsilium network. Tell me what psychology entails in your world. The idea of it, and also the practice of it. If your world has that, or something like it, I mean, and doesn't just chalk it all up to demons.

His taint, in other words, is the problem.] Something crunchy, perhaps. [Psychoanalyse this!]Some of us have recently been forced to revisit less-than-pleasant memories, with a charming twist. I can't say it makes me want to dig any deeper into my own mind, but I thought we ought to be ready to help, if people were damaged by what they saw or did.

I see. I'll be by later with ink blots to run further tests, sir!
Ooooh yeah, that whole thing. I guess if someone knows how to help people with that... though even listening can be a big help. Sometime's that's all a person needs!
