"You can't afford to keep going. I need you to stop, Darcy. I know this is terrifying but breathe, focus." She still sounds so gentle. One could almost ignore her shaking. "Would you train on a broken leg? Lift weights with a shattered elbow? You're hurting. You need to give yourself time to heal. Throw out every word I ever said about the sword if you want, listen to me on this."
She's pleading: "Part of realizing you're not sovereign is getting the chance to accept help. To lick your wounds. To stop, and start again renewed. I don't know what hit you before I just did but... please."
