Not to defend Mystra, but she did not personally put the orb into me. I did that quite by myself. Nor am I certain it counts as a disease, but point taken.
[ zen ... ]
For what it is worth, I'd really rather it not happen again. But, I'm afraid I don't know what you mean ... ?
You don't need to know what I mean. But there's a better chance I'd be willing to shank someone and make it quick if someone slips the net again. Especially now we know it's not exactly good for them and we don't have another solution for it.
Astarion, I am bloody trying. I was trying to abide by what you wanted. And I did - I was not the one who did the blow, so I do not have liberty to decide what to do with the item.

Yes, and as I said that was the worst timing for that conversation. But regardless... we'll figure something out. Given the rate of deaths around here, I don't expect this will be the last situation like this, despite anyone's wishes.
That will probably be the one time I will hesitate in getting my hands bloody. Although do warn me if it turns out it's someone from our miserable little mortuary.
[ sweet astarion, he is way too wizard-brained to interpret this back and forth he is very distressed right now. the nightmare scenario is astarion is evading now and was being honest before and he doesn't know which version to believe and will end up hurting him by choosing the wrong one again. ]

You said there's something to heal illness and I would perhaps think that a goddess implanted orb might count! [ we are calm and zen. ]
Next time this happens, talk to me again. You picked a phenomenally poor moment on Monday to have that particular conversation with me.
