[ For the briefest moment, an exhausted looking Martin sports a wide, red-and-black gash on his cheek. It's just your imagination, however—in seconds, a shimmering yellow-tinged light washes over his face, closing the wound until only dried blood is left. ] I'm sorry I haven't properly welcomed those of you who have just arrived. My name is Martin Septim, and together with Doctor John Watson, I run the transport clinic. Please, if you must travel around and outside the Hold, be careful. The natives are not happy with us, we're running out of medical supplies, and I don't have any magicka potions.

Thank you for your time. [ In a hurry, Martin cuts off the feed. ]

Yes, they are. And not just that, they are attacking us even if we try to help. [ Martin thumbs his cheek. ] I almost lost my eye in that fight...

[ Totally meant video too /palmface. ]

Then don't. If they are attacking despite what you offer, then they aren't worth the pain they will cause you.

[ Assumed as much! ] I am a healer. They might not thank us now, but I have hope that treating them with kindness will help them see we are not evil.

And if that kindness results in your death? And if that death means that many more will also die? I do not think I can see the reasoning for tossing yourself recklessly into the mob.

[septim]

I already died due to kindness. And I don't regret it. But no, I won't take unnecessary risks. I knew what I was getting myself into. I was in control.

[onemoredeath]

So you can stop them from pushing you too far?

[septim]

[ No hesitation. ] Yes. I am used to dealing with frightened people.

[onemoredeath]

Well, that is good to hear.

[septim]

In any case, if we don't treat them with kindness, we'll be proving them right.

Bend like the willow and remain unmoving like the mountain.

That's a good proverb.

It is a mindset my people always had. More or less.
