[She still disagreed with the spell, but left the matter alone. What's done is done.]
I love the Sanctuary. I finally figured out how to connect and draw from nature here because of the sapling. I'm meeting a lot of people too, people that need help and are looking for some way to remove their corruption. There's this one guy who has a steed. He comes and meditates with me. He seems very steady and thoughtful, also drawing from energies like I do. Though, he calls it "the force". It's really interesting.
You know if you want, you can come and join me and work on corruption. I think I can help drain it away. If you'd rather not, I understand.
Me? I don't think I have much corruption. My Vile Blood is still wonky. I can't touch anyone, which makes the flow of energy between myself and others a little more difficult. I'm happier though. I'm starting to feel things again.
That's great. I'm glad you're enjoying it, and that you're meeting new people. The guy you're talking about sounds a lot like Obi-Wan. I don't know if he's got a horse, though. I guess he might? I've met a couple people from his universe. Maul's one of them too.
And thanks for the offer - I'll keep it in mind. I don't think it's much of a problem right now, though. I feel fine.
I'm glad you're starting to feel better. I miss you too.
He never really said his name. We just talked a bit about nature and its ability to calm the mind. He seemed a bit surprised that it could be used as a purifier. I haven't really met someone before that thought of magic in similar ways. Even I don't agree with everything he said.
Are you sure? If you have any issues or just want to keep ahead of anything that might happen, come to the Sanctuary. It means holding hands and sharing energy again. Well, gloved hands.
[Willow recoils in alarm as soon as she reads the description. She had so hoped it wasn't Maul who was visiting Tara at the Sanctuary.]
Yeah. That's him. That's Maul. He says he's changed, and I think maybe he has? I mean. I haven't had any problems with him or anything since... You know. But still, be really, really careful.
I'll be careful, but I can't turn him away if he wants help with his corruption. I have to give him a chance like I will anyone else. I can see why he would be someone dangerous. There's something unnerving about him. There's also this reverence he has for nature too, though.
[She doesn't like it. It makes her nervous, and uncomfortable, to know Maul is hanging around someone she loves very much, but Willow trusts Tara's judgement, and she knows she can't turn someone away who is genuinely looking for help.]
I know. I get it. And maybe he can be helped, and maybe it really will make him safer. I mean, I can't pretend it doesn't make me worry a little, but I'm not going to tell you not to do it either.

I am. A lot. If that's not obvious, I mean?

I'm really glad you're doing better.
