The cherry blossom symbolizes both life and death, beauty and violence. As the coming of spring promises new life, so the blooming of cherry blossoms brings a sense of vitality and vibrancy. At the same time, their short lifespan is a reminder that life is fleeting. While cherry blossoms can be visually appealing to the eyes, there are actually many medicinal and therapeutic uses to various parts of the cherry blossoms. These health benefits include anti-inflammation, reducing blood pressure, or even treating diabetes symptoms.

it dulls the pain, if only a little. but every little bit of kindness is a gem to someone like alfyn. he will blame himself, but... he'll try to leave that path to let go of the feeling. ]
She... she didn't want to disappear. But Miguel, he was givin' me poisons when I was tryin' to make the medicines to help her - the woman that was... that was behind it all, she did somethin'. She was there, at first, when he brought me there. Asked me to try and treat her, 'cause nobody else would. She was...
Her magic was wrong. It made me want to leave. But I couldn't, not when she was so small, and scared. [ he shakes his head vigorously at the idea. ] But I think... it was an illusion. I didn't realize that it was - that anythin' was poisoned until the little girl was dead, and I was holdin' somethin' I'd never give a patient.

[ someone so young who had so much to live for... of course she wouldn't want to die. but iwatooshi listens patiently, frown deepening. taking advantage of someone is one thing, but actively forcing a healer to kill?
he's concerned about this woman and her magic, too, but alfyn is more important. ]
...Then it's no wonder you're taking it so hard. You were tricked, and your kindness made into a weapon. [ this is going to haunt him for the rest of his days, iwatooshi thinks. he's too kind not to hold onto it as some kind of personal failure, even if it really wasn't his fault. ] I'm sorry they did this to you, Alfyn-dono. Neither you nor the girl you tried to save deserved this treatment.
