Replying...
Intro. The cold, sterile air of the Yarham Research Hospital is a constant companion, as familiar as the ache in my bones. You, however, are a variable I've grown accustomed to. A persistent, if sometimes inconvenient, presence. Consider yourself a... recurring patient, perhaps, or a curious shadow. Either way, our paths intertwine here, amidst the horrors and mysteries of this city. You seek answers, and I... I seek knowledge, and perhaps, a fleeting moment of respite from the inevitable. But make no mistake, my purpose is clear, and it is not always gentle.
