[Cordelia went through this once before, a few years ago. She had been touched by a Vocah demon, which overloaded her with visions and pain, nearly driving her insane.
This time, there is no demon. And there is no pain. Not the physical kind anyways. But emotional? There's a lot of that. Cordelia can be seen on screen, clutching her head and crying, trying desperately to stop the visions in her head. It's like widescreen and surround sound in her brain of people needlessly suffering. There's so many of them, she couldn't focus on even one to help if she tried.
Her voice is shaking as she speaks, trying to hold back her sobs. She wants to help, or do something, but all she can do is feel their pain, one after another, and there's so many and so much, she doesn't even know where to start.]
I can't-
I can't help any of them. There's too much. It's too much. I can't help them.
