There were a lot of things that need explanation, but I wasn't sure if my brain--and more importantly my heart--could take so much in one sitting.

"God--you have no idea how much I want to bring you over here that time," he said it in such a weak and vulnerable voice, in a volume that only allowed me to hear it. And then, when he spoke again, it was laden with frustration. "I knew we could look for a cure here. We can use alchemy, we can use magic, we can try everything..." he gritted his teeth for a few seconds, and then sighed. "But I didn't know how to do that."
