[Closed to Erwin]// backdated to the beginning of the month

Commander Erwin, sir!

[Armin's voice rings out in Erwin's head, crisp and clear. He may not be able to salute - probably good, as he can't even stand right now - but he would do his best to show his commander what respect he could.]

I have something to report.

Yes, sir.

Well, we're in a forest, so there's an excess of wood. And while titan-piercing blades aren't ideal for the task, that just means it'll take a little more time - which I have in great supply, at least until I finish them.

[civics]

Mm... And you don't know if this magic will wear off? Will this be permanent?

[ He pauses again, realizing that he could be making his way toward Armin to help him. Erwin is more than capable when it comes to treating a wounded soldier. ]

I apologize for all of these questions, but I'd like to learn as much as I can about the magic that's affecting you. If you need my assistance, I'm willing to offer it. I've seen enough death on the battlefield, and I'm normally not in a position where I can offer this sort of help.

[neverfeltthatway]

Ah... as far as I can tell, sir, the curse is magic but the damage caused by it is real, and physical. I don't think there's any reversing it, besides trying to let it heal naturally.

...I could be wrong, though.

A-are you certain, sir? I'm sure I c-can manage eventually without bothering you...

[civics]

Armin, if you need my assistance and I'm able to provide it, I'll gladly lend my hand. For the time being, try to get some more information about the curse you've been given. Any information may prove useful in the future, as well.

[ A sigh ]

And, if you're able, begin collecting materials that we can use to fashion you some sort of rudimentary crutches. Being in stuck the forest will do little for your current condition.
