Marigolds were often linked to the powerful strength of the sun and represent power, strength, and light that lives inside of a person. The marigold can also represent the connection between life and death. According to Ayurvedic and Unani medicine, the flowers and leaves of marigold have anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, antimicrobial, and antiepileptic effects. Marigolds are generally administered in tinctures, ointments, and infusions to treat wounds for inflammation of the skin and mucous membranes.

Yeah. And I think... that kinda thing has carried, so far.

[ at least he'll believe it in his heart. but nothing about this has ever been about fairness, or closure, and he knows that. ]

Not been any answers, so far, on there bein' a way out of it. But I don't want to give up on it.

I've talked to a few people about it, and they've said they'd rather die as themselves. But it's like you're just being... put out of your misery either way.

We need bigger-picture solutions.

I heard from Lavi about what you got, from that trip you, him, Rondo, and Mathis went on. We got a couple things from ours, too, and I was wonderin' with him whether that's somethin' we need to... I don't know.

Use, at some point. Like stuff for a spell. Or if we gotta keep 'em away from the cult so they can't finish the ritual, or somethin'.

But that doesn't do anythin' for our now problems.

[killies]

Well... I talked to the overseers and they said we should let them know what we have. So check in with them about it if you haven't already. They were able to tell me the items are "magic," and to hold onto them. And I also talked to someone who's power here is to get more information about an item, and they were able to confirm that they are to be used in a ritual.

However... That doesn't tell us whether it's something the cult need that we're keeping away from them, or if it's something we'll need for our own, different ritual.

[concoctive]

Yeah, Pesti said it's best that no matter what, we hold onto 'em. And that they'd look into what they could be for, besides bein' full of magic.

Still. I told Rondo that if somethin' happens to me, he's to take 'em and make sure they stay safe, so that they don't fall into the wrong hands.

[killies]

That's smart. I should probably have a contingency plan, too...

[ she just doesn't really want to think about that scenario too deeply. ]

[concoctive]

... not somethin' you have to think about, right now, but it's the one thing I've made sure to get squared away.

[ he hasn't wanted to think about the scenario more than that, to be honest. ]

[killies]

... Yeah. I'll figure it out when things settle a little more.
