[ It's hard to not sound worried, to remain calm. In ways this sounds familiar; the ways in which she's had to magically bind Paimon when he's lost control of himself and turned violent. ]

What happened—? Did this place make you do something—? [ There's a short pause. ] If this place has made you lost control of yourself, it's not your fault. We can help you.

the shedding made me into a different person
it was me
but not me

[creidim]

I believe you, I understand. [ She's... had her own experiences with the Shedding Ceremony. ] Whatever you've done, it wasn't you. Even if it felt like it was.

I don't know what might be best to bind you, but I have potions that might be able to help at the very least.

potions

are you the one peter knows?

[creidim]

Yes, Peter's my boyfriend. [ Quite handy to have a witch as a girlfriend, really. ] I'm working to see if I can create better potions here, but I have Calming Draughts and Sleeping Potions.

[ Merlin knows if she'd be ever able to create the Draught of Peace. Unicorn horn is not going to be easy to come by. ]
