Part 17: Elysium
Medico!? ...Dr. Stiles! Angie!
Emilio! How have you been? You look much better.
Dr. Stiles, Ms. Thompson. Thank you for taking the time to come.
It's no problem. We wanted to help set up a treatment plan for Emilio.
We've also brought him some medication for his PGS.
Ah, so it's finally ready! The medicine that will save Emilio...
I'm sure he'd recover without it, but this new medicine should truly cure him. You must be glad, Emilio! You'll finally be able to go back to Mexico!
Thank you...
......
...Ms. Ross, what's the matter?
Even if Emilio returns to his country... he has no family there.
Not to rain on your parade, but considering that this game is meant to be taking place in 2021... Good luck with that
On another note, I just realized that UtK/SO don't take place in ~the future~ anymore. Man that makes me feel old
I see...
Heather is very... nice. I want... stay. Heather like... a sister.
*smile* Emilio...
(I'm glad they can both smile like that now...)
We should wait until he recovers his strength a little more before beginning this treatment. There is still the possibility of side effects, so we need to take all possible precautions. Not to be rude, but the medicine must be administered in a very specific way, so please follow--
If the instructions are there, then I would be happy to take it from here.
Huh? Really?
Did any of you pay attention to her character blurb?
Wow, that's amazing, considering how young you are!
(Hey, I got my license at that age too, you know...)
Oh, not really... It's nothing compared to what Ms. Thompson has done.
Y-You think so...?
Of course! It's one of my dreams to become an assistant to an excellent doctor like Dr. Stiles.
I'm sure it'll happen someday, Ms. Ross.
Thank you very much. Oh... By the way, Doctor. Most people just call me by my first name, so... If you don't mind, you can call me "Heather."
Oh... OK.
Huh? What's going on?
Sorry, I didn't know... Which way is the ward?
It's right over there. Where'd you come from anyway?
I just got lost... Sorry. Over there you said, right?
Doctor, didn't we pass by that man while we were IN the ward earlier?
Hm... I'm not sure... Did we?
......
Oh... There's something I wanted to ask you about...!
What is it, Ms.-- Er, Heather?
It's just... the GUILT that appeared in Emilio... It's been worrying me... I mean, I know you treated it, Dr. Stiles, but...
...Heather?
You're right... Why he had a relapse is still a mystery to us. But the research division at Caduceus is continuing to investigate the cause. He doesn't have any chiral reactions, though, so there's no need to worry.
I see...
...Huh?
They've involved Professor Blackwell, Angie?
He knows more about GUILT than anyone, so...
I've heard about Professor Blackwell before... That he was threatened by Delphi and forced to research GUILT...
No matter what the circumstances, the sins he committed can not be erased. But, he believes he can atone for those sins through his work, and that's what keeps him going.
He's the head researcher for GUILT. He's coerced to do them by the evil organization (Delphi) and eventually got infected with GUILT himself (Savato).
It isn't easy to keep living when you have to face such a painful past every day. In that respect, I think you have a wonderful father. I'm a little jealous.
Huh...?
Anyway, I'm sure that Emilio will get better in no time, with all the support he's getting.
Exactly! Let's keep our thoughts positive!
