"I would like to know why I am here, please." "We have brought you here about your presence. Why are you here?" "To be clear, I don't know.

"I will have you know that our last epidemic has been passed for years." "Ah, but the disease is never gone, because I can sense it. And it is my job to cure it." "I've been told of your cure, and it is ineffective." "I'll have you know, that it does, in fact, work." "No it does not!" She was being to get angry, but Doc showed no reaction. "You've killed an innocent life with your useless cure! You are accused of murder!" "It is not murder! It is a cure, and I have no further intentions in speaking with you, Princess." "But why do you even think it works!?" No answer. Just a glare. "Get him out of my sight! Send him to the dungeon, as he has caused the death of an innocent life." As he was pulled away, he asked a question without an answer. "Have you heard of a second life?"
