I believe you. Stop letting things and people take control of you...

How is everyone doing...

[stripping]

Most of the monks have only minor injuries. My father nad brother are in the hospital, so I'm acting head of the temple.

I promise. This wwill not happen again.

[morethanabot]

That better news then I expected.

Good!

And how are you holding up?

[Voice forever, btw.]

[stripping]

N...not all that well, I'm afraid.

[Same]

[morethanabot]

Mmm. I...

Well this isn't your fault.

[stripping]

I should have been stronger. I should have been able to do something.

[morethanabot]

No it's not.

And if you feel that way still, all you need to do is, after all the aplogies are done and over with, train yourself a bit to try and repel them.

I can do that. I must do that.

If you endanger your health in any way by forgoing sleep, food, relaxation and so forth it counts as overdoing it.

[stripping]

Fine, fine. I'll still sleep.
