Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
"Healing is a trait that many consider noble. A skill that is pure." Aswini said calmly. "But you forgot how I heal."
"You surely can't heal someone to death!" The scholar exclaimed loudly.
"Tell me, sir, how do I heal? What does my technique consist of?" The young woman said, not batting an eye.
"You...you use energy, correct? You call it life-force. You run it throught the patient's body, steadily forcing their injuries or illness-damaged areas to heal." The scholar answered, attempting to sound confident.
"There are two ways how could I kill a person with this. May I ask for two plants, please? I'll give you a demonstration." Aswini said with a smile.
"May it be so, bring her two identical plants!"
And so two plants were put in front of her.
"First one is easy to guess. As much as I can manipulate the life-force in the patient and in me to heal them...." She moved her hands in a well practised position. "...I can take it out as much easy as I can give it."
The first flower withered and crumbled, only the scelet of its leaves and other hard parts remaining.
"Second one is more surprising: too much life-force can kill. It messes up with electrical and other impulses in the body and speeds up the metabolism to an unbearable point. That's why gods often kill when they try to help - they override the systems of the patient."
The second flower shined after she moved her hands, withering as much as the first one.
"Now, I healed it to death."
The scholars went pale. She bowed and left.
In a world of magic and dragons, everyone thought the healers needed to be protected. No offensive magic to speak of how could they protect them selfs? That’s what everyone thought. Until you proved you can actualy heal someone to death…
That just sounds like lower-pitched whale sounds guys-

Same here. It was sad to see how some people in the fabdom treated him, but I'm glad that they grew.
You know what's been absolutely wild to see? Since season 3 started airing, the characterization and portrayal of Crosshair has shifted through the fandom.
Like any recent fic characterizes him in a completely different light and it's pretty remarkable to be watching this shift in real time. Anyway I've been eating this up thank you for your service 🫡
