She may not remember what happened to her, or even have her entire memory wiped. She could possibly never recover, even with all the wonders of modern medicine at our disposal.”
“Damn. That's terrible.” you mutter, the good doctor turning to you fully.
“Now, what are you here for?” he asks, knowing you hadn't shown up just to help her. “You returned here instead of elsewhere, but you don't seem to be in any danger.”
“Do you still have that jar, filled with the crystal shards you dug out of me?” you ask him, Dr. White's brows narrowing a bit. “I was going to get Chilli to take a look at them, to see if he could do anything with them.”
“They should still be around here, check that utility closet over there.” he says, gesturing toward the smallest door in the room. As you turn to check, you hear his fingers going at it on his keyboard, no doubt taking notes about what had happened today with this particular patient. You, meanwhile go over to the door, sliding it open and peering inside. To your surprise, you see several jars among the shelves filled with boxes, labeled in a language that isn't common, one you can't read. But the jars catch your eye, each is filled with a variety of different substances. In one you see a growth of the pink explosive crystals, another a glowing device you can't place, and in yet another you see some dark liquid, yet feel as if something in that jar is looking at you. But then you find it, back on the highest shelf you can sense the residual power of the Soulstone. With a thought you grab it with your telekinesis, pulling the jar over to your outstretched hand, then back out of the small side room and shut the door behind you.
“Thanks a lot.” you tell him, the doctor nodding without looking away. You got what you came for.
But what now?
>Teleport straight to your son's side, explain your day in person and that you're wanting him to check it out>Take the jar and put it in your room, you'll give it in person and explain what happened next time he's down your way, or you're up at his planet>Save the jar for later, ask the young man what happened and how he knows the girl recovering there in the pod>Telepathically tell Chilli everything that happened, then ask if he can take a look at the crystal shards for you to see if he can discover anything about them anytime soon>Other(write in)
