[Someone's alive again, but not feeling too great. The whole death business really doesn't agree with him :| Cue disorientation like whoa. Now where did he put that journal...]
[Probably a good thing, because Edward has to stay close, not wanting to be so meek as to require handholding, but... enjoying the close company, at least.]
The wings will reduce in size, and the spirits should be gone. John mentioned that we may need to monitor those who were possessed still. If you feel anything amiss, I need to know.
I gathered whom I could of the villagers to the tunnels to protect those who had been possessed and not murdered. We waited there until John demanded we leave. In exchange, he gave us information about what he planned to do.
Y... you did... [And now Ed's kind of upset that he missed out. For one, it was a chance to see Sigmund in his leadership element, which he loves to watch; for another, he hadn't been there to help.] I'm glad you were able to carry on without me.
[Undoubtedly, there were probably times when Sigmund attempted to give Edward orders, and Edward wasn't there to receive them.] ...It was all I could do to make it up to you. I could not protect you.
[Even when sent off on errands, he always comes running back.
But this isn't something he can change or fix - it's already over and done with. So he grips Sigmund's shoulder, trying to think of some better way to be comforting.]
[He wasn't the first to do so, but Sigmund had hoped he would be the last. Sigmund is the kind of man who is rarely helpless, save for when he's lost lovers in the past. Perhaps he is too attached now, but he wouldn't chance it for the world.
Feeling encouraged by Edward's touch, he drifts over to wrap his arm around Edward's waist. Touch is so very reassuring.]
[Edward will definitely do his best to always stay alive now :c He stays close to Sigmund, walking in tandem with him so they don't trip over each other while being so close.]
Is everyone else alright? Capell, Lady Svala... Sir Kratos?

Yes, my lord! [Oh ho, managed that one.]
[Action]
Lean on me if you feel tired.
[Action]
Thank you... I'm sorry for the trouble.
[Action]
It's no trouble at all.
[Action]
[Action]
The possessions are finally starting to pass.
[Action]
I noticed my original wings have returned.

[Action]
[He feels a bit sick as well, but like hell he's going to lose his cookies in front of Sigmund.]
[Action]
[Don't let your stomach win, Edward!]
[Action]
[He'll be number one!]
[Action]
[Go go epic waifu!]
[Action]
[He can't transform into a giant mecha though.]
[Action]

[Action]
You had nothing to make up for, my lord... you didn't fail me at all.
[Action]
There was nothing I could do.
[Action]
But this isn't something he can change or fix - it's already over and done with. So he grips Sigmund's shoulder, trying to think of some better way to be comforting.]
[Action]
Feeling encouraged by Edward's touch, he drifts over to wrap his arm around Edward's waist. Touch is so very reassuring.]
[Action]
Is everyone else alright? Capell, Lady Svala... Sir Kratos?
[Oh dear, he has to apologize for the fight...]
[Action]
They are fine. Capell assisted in the effort to protect the possessed, and Kratos guarded Mother while I was working. They are all well.
Your friend Faize... he was another victim of the Malnosso attacks.
[Action]
F...Faize is...!?
[Action]
... He is dead as well. I've not yet heard of his return.
