      If the bear had family nearby, it’s more likely ‘mourning wood’.

    Stable relationships and successful cures don’t make for a compelling tale, especially ones discovered simply by the application of the characters’ existing skill-sets without challenging them. Expect to see these supposedly positive turns eventually go negative in a big way.

    Gotta hit the low point on the hero’s journey, y’all.

    I think she was more concerned that high levels of adrenaline would cause a reaction. You know like the hulk in the lastest movie, where if his heart rate got above a certain point, which occured when bruce was mad, scared ect, he’d rage out and go on a mindless killing spree. That said now he’s cured a few things might happen. HE might be poised with a situation where the need to berserk occures and he has to choose or the potion could have side effects or just not last as long as hoped. That said Syr can always science (see chapter 1 page 2)

    She’s taken him out to a remote location
    and now she’s making out with him?

    And as to all the splinter jokes, I suppose nobody considered the possibility that the elf prepared a special bare bush to celebrate his victory.

    After all, she did believe in him… and hoped for the best.
