Greg nods, not quite looking at her.

"It's really easy to see when someone's body--or, um, their gem I guess--when they get hurt there. And so that makes it easier to know what needs fixing."

The "how" might not be easy, but the point was it generally got a lot more obvious.

"When someone feels alone, or scared, or lost... other people can't see where they're hurting so easy. Sometimes you can't even see it yourself. Those wounds can go a lot longer without anyone knowing how to heal them."

He's not quire smiling, but his expression is gentle.

"That hope you gave us... the knowledge that we're not alone, it might not feel as important, because you can't see the wounds it's healing. But we were hurting."
