A Difficult Situation

The crow looks down at you, tilts its beak, and-almost playfully-says,

"Listen, there’s a limit to how much I can help. If you get wiped out again, we’ll really be in trouble."

After a brief silence, the inspector’s voice cuts back in.

"If you collapse again, I won’t say another word."

The crow gives a shake of one wing, then flies back into the mist. You set your jaw and begin preparing once more.
