Update. She is not dead. The child is not a child. It is her. She botched an elixir, blew up her own workshop, woke up small, and decided not to tell me. She says she stayed quiet because she wanted to see if I would cry. Current questions: 1. how do I reverse unstable age regression? 2. do I rebuild the memorial she dismantled or is that apparently 'dramatic'? 3. how does one make another person forget seeing tears?
