[The video opens up on Ivar in the hallway of the hospital, sitting right outside a room. His free hand has a knife in it, fiddling round with it. Some might notice there's holes in the wall from where he's already stabbed through it a few times. He's got a grim look on his face and his eyes are hard, like someone facing a battle that they know they can't win.]

For those who care, Letha's in the hospital. Things aren't looking good. She's-- [There's a moment where something flickers over his face, an expression filled with pain and worry. Then he composes himself again.] --Something's gone wrong with her daughter, and according to the doctors, it's draining her life force. They don't know if they can fix what's wrong with her.

[For a moment, it appears that's all he's going to say. Then he turns and swiftly drives the knife into the wall again, burying the blade right up to its hilt. Well, Ivar wouldn't be himself without an irrational spike of anger.] Someone distract me before I kill one of these useless doctors.

I told her to go sooner. I'll make sure to visit her, if it's okay. She's so... It just isn't fair.

[ a sigh. ]

If you're good with those knives, I'll spar with you. Is that distraction enough?

[ragnarsson]

I was stupid enough to believe her when she said everything was fine. [He'd been such a fool and now she was paying the price.] She's resting right now, but I'm sure she'd want some visitors.

[He nods.] That'll work. Just don't blame me if you end up in here too.

[deathkid]

I could tell. I could sense it from where I was, but she's stubborn.

[ a sigh and then he snorts. ] Trust me, that won't happen.

[ragnarsson]

Hopefully, that stubbornness will help her get through this.

[If she gets through this, he thinks to himself before he can stop.]

So you say.

[deathkid]

I'm sure it will.

Meet me outside the housing in 15?

[ragnarsson]

I'll be there.

[It's better than sitting around the hospital losing his mind with worry. He knows there's nothing more he can do for Letha than what the doctors and nurses are already doing for her.]
