[Ah, Yu was always an observant one. And though he had never told him that much, one need only keep an eye on the network to know about his healing abilities, and as helpful as they can be, they do hurt him when he uses them.

His hand stops briefly over the sink, before he continues to fill up his glass. He speaks over the steady hiss of water flowing.]

Yes. I heal, but it transfers the pain from the person I'm healing to... myself.

[Another silence, just watching the water fill the glass.]

The other me, when he was-- younger, I think. He healed some terrible ailment. And in doing so, he took it into himself. It felt alive within him.

[covenantal]

[ A lead weight settles in his gut.

He's starting to see the smallest piece of why he and his uncle both have memories from their other lives that they'd likely rather forget. ]

That's ... pretty frightening, [ he murmurs, speaking his honest feelings. There's no point in trying to sugar coat. ] What happened after that?

[The water is turned off, and he's left with a full glass, suddenly not sure if he was very thirsty at all.]

That... is something I'm not certain about. There's a large gap in my memories from there. From the man who wished to help others, to the man who had hoped to harm the world.

[He says it with such ease, with such flippancy; but this is merely Ardyn's way of coping with things that are particularly difficult for him to parse, for him to know what to do with.]

I just know that it's almost as if remembering two different people. Later, I know he was overcome by that dark thing he took within him. An ailment that would turn people into creatures; it twisted him into something apathetic, I think.

[And that isn't even going into the details of what he remembered.]
