CLOSED; for Strange

That the method is called 'stress testing' immediately betrays the nature of it but Gela doesn't have a firm idea of what exactly is going to happen the afternoon she meets Strange. They've moved underground, heading down the stairs, probably because the additional layers of stone will help to mask the sound of... howling. Should it occur.

It might, but Gela is ready. Maker, she is so tired of being ready.

Everything is in place; they have informed the Commander. Strange is the head healer and if anything goes wrong he'll help her, so she has the best person on the case and couldn't really ask for better. Maybe they'll finally find out what her 'trigger' is and she can simply avoid it for the rest of her life as best she can.

And that she hasn't found it after years of living at the Gallows is a small reassurance, but doesn't much help as they descend a little further, right down to the namesake of her home. She clears her throat.

"... I'm not going in one of those, am I?"
