I am free but I am flawed

Raisa shifted from one paw to another. Slowly she slid down until her belly brushed the earth. She hesitated a moment, as if wondering whether or not the earth would rise up and lash out. At last, when all seemed safe, she rested there. It seemed she would be there for a while, observing. Most of the ex-regents fractured mind agreed that she had no business to be in such a dangerous, confusing situation, but a sliver begged her to stay. There was something about these two... familiar in all the worst ways. In some sense, in some distant part of herself, she belonged with these monsters. They were the demons that plagued her every step, but she was a part of them, somehow. She could not move.

Koros could only guess at the thoughts within her mind. Her spared Raisa a long look, and long blink, and a sigh. He shifted his weight from one side of his body to the other. "I'm not sure," he admitted at last. "I don't believe this is a problem a healer could solve with salves and tinctures. I believe my lady would have to work through it herself, only..." He paused, searching for the right words. How could he convey something so vastly complex, something he himself had only scratched the surface of after months of observation? "Only, there are times I don't think she herself wants to," he said at last in a quiet tone. "Perhaps if we found some sort of trigger, that might pull her back to us, but the past seems to wound her." He was caught between trying to heal his Queen and trying to keep her safe. Koros wasn't sure what was worse for her these days, it was getting harder and harder to tell.
