I had tried speaking to him personally on many occasions to help him see things from a Healer’s perspective, but his emotions clouded his judgement. As it was his father as he patient in question, I could understand, but his insistence to take this to the media made things significantly more difficult.
“ I just wish we could ask the Elder himself what he wants, Julian said.
I glanced at Noah across the room, who looked back at me and nodded.

Good. The test results came back favorable then. That was a relief.
“Maybe we can,” I said.
That surprised both the new Head Healer and Julian, who both turned their wide eyes to me.
So I explained, “I’ve been working on a potion to help stabilize the Elder enough for a small conversation. It should not strain him overmuch, giving us the chance to force the shift if he wishes. Though I still don’t believe that is the answer p>
I was certain his body wouldn’t handle the shift, but I had other means that I was working on to help cure him. These things would take time to develop though. Feverfang virus was no easy web to untangle, or it would have been done a long time ago.
“And this potion… it’s ready right now?” Julian looked at me in awe, as if he was surprised I could have accomplished such a thing in such a short amount of time.
While his appreciation made my heart flutter, I quickly pushed down on those feelings. What I had done was no great miracle. Much of the legwork had already been done. simply needed to add a few elements to help stabilize Elder Jeffers specific condition…
Though, I supposed this was a talent of mine. I could see the formulas in my head, knowing what needed to be done with a quickness that my colleagues seemed to lack.

“Yes,” I said. Looking at Noah, I said, “Please call the family. Let’s find out what Elder Jeffers wants for himself p>
Three hours later, several Healers including Eric, Craig, and the new Head Healer, joined me as I stood with the Jeffers family and Julian at Elder Jeffers’s bedside.
Ken seemed the only one displeased. Crossing his arms, he glared at me.
Seeing this, Julian moved a little closer to my side, helping me feel protected. It was difficult not to sway back into him.
This entire ordeal has been emotionally exhausting for everyone, including me. It lowered my guard around Julian. There were so many reasons for us to not even be friendly with each other, yet in this moment, I seemed to take strength from his closeness.
His presence gave me the courage I needed to step forward with the potion ready in an injectable vial.
“Are we ready?” I asked the family.
“Yes,” Roger said without hesitation.
“Yes,” said the youngest, slower, while holding onto his wife.
They both looked at Ken, the last holdout. “Yes. Fine p>

Moving forward, I raised the needle to the input of the IV life and slowly pushed it through. The potion dripped down the line, gradually entering Elder Jeffers’s bloodstrean.
“How long with it be until he wakes?” Roger asked.
As the potion had never been used before, I couldn’t give him a solid timeline. “ Soon, ” I said instead.
We all watched Elder Jeffers closely, looking for even the slightest hint of his waking.
After a couple of minutes, Ken scoffed, “It’s not working. I knew you were a hack, Healer Amber. What’s your
