In heraldry, the cinquefoil emblem or potentilla signified strength, power, honor, and loyalty. Potentilla is a silent, beautiful reminder of the human capacity to endure and overcome life's struggles, making it a profound symbol of strength and celebration. It has traditionally been used to treat inflammatory disorders of the skin and mucous membranes as well as chronic diarrhea.

[ somewhere on the island, probably, because haha hey! what the fuck is right! my mans does not want to go through the fog again. ]

Took the words outta my mouth. [ wearily ] It's a real long story, if you want it. But m'okay - we're all gonna be okay. Just... it was a rough time.

[halved]

That's... good. It really did look like you guys had tried to kill each other for a second.

[laudna was right...]

I want to hear it. If anything like it happens again, I want to be prepared.

Not... technically. Geto got controlled, at one point, but he was fightin' it the whole time. Not really his choice - or ours.

[ but he nods a little, taking a breath. ]

... we got lost in the fog. All apart, at first, 'til me and Tot found each other and then saw Geto and Pickles. In a big castletown with white stone walls. But the streets were empty and the people... they were scared, hidin'. Like I've seen folks be durin' wartime and plagues in Orsterra.

Controlled— [HELLO?? she's so alarmed.] Was it the same as what happened to Boothill?

[geto, did you get possessed by a demon... what the heck.]

So it was like you were in a completely different place... And there were people there?

[concoctive]

... a little? [ the closest comparison he can think of for her. ] There was a woman there, the cause of everythin' that happened to us and the castletown, both, and she managed to get her influence into his head to control him like she was doin' to... well.

There were folks there, yeah, and it was a bunch of scared villagers and her undead. Like the ones that came out of the graves on Sunday. The guards I didn't get a close look at, but they were walkin' dead, too, and then we had... [ mmmm ] We had faces from here, and from home, that she used against us. As undead puppets.

[halved]

... That sounds like what happened during the execution, too. The zombies that wore someone else's face.

[she frowns. she knows not what a cyoa is...]

You're sure that woman wasn't part of the cult?
