Hey. My name's Qrow.

[ A familiar greeting, not that anybody is familiar with him! His voice is gruff and tired, but that's his everyday voice. ]

That guy everyone's been chasing after is dead. [ A slight pause, and in a softer tone: ] Killed himself.

He gave some details to the cure, though. Said that we need a plant called the Oshai Leaf for it, and it can only be found in Wyver.

Wyver's been hit with the same disease, too. No idea what the situation's like there, but they can't find the cure for it either. Another ingredient for the cure can only be found here.

That's all I know. If you've got questions, ask. I'll try to answer 'em.

[ The sound of liquid hitting metal can be heard, but that's just him moving his flask closer to his mouth. ]

[ Qrow has never spoken to the Orbiters, but maybe other people would have a better chance at speaking to them. He... doesn't want to. Not yet. He doesn't know much about them to be to speak with them casually.

As for Haru's question— ]

Haven't tried. It's worth trying, though.

[frombetrayal]

I'll keep it in mind.

Failing that, there's always the traditional method. [...] Though I can certainly understand why they might be wary about admitting people coming from Olympia, given everything that seems to be happening.

[unpromising]

They gotta find out themselves that a part of the cure is here. Otherwise, they'd probably just think we're taking advantage of them.

[frombetrayal]

Yes. The problem is - what if they don't? People in both nations will suffer if they're not made aware of that somehow...

[unpromising]

[ Qrow is too pessimistic to help her out in this aspect. Nothing he has in mind will likely comfort her. ]

All we can do is hope they've got brains.

[frombetrayal]

With any luck...

[And it turns out they do! ...as they'll discover in a few days.]

In any case! Thank you for your hard work. It's unfortunate that it ended the way that it did, but... that's hardly your fault.

[Dude was probably going to off himself no matter what, honestly.]

You've brought back information that we sorely needed, and we can't thank you enough for that.

[unpromising]

I'm just doing what should be done.

[ Sharing what he knows, he means. He doesn't want to take too much credit for this. ]

[frombetrayal]

What should be done and what actually happens don't always match up, so we're lucky that it's you that procured this information.

[The chances are high that others would have shared it as well, since it seems like they all more or less have a shared interest in figuring this out, but there was always the possibility that someone wouldn't share it.]

Oh - I should introduce myself, since we may be meeting again in the future. My name is Haru.

[unpromising]

[ Haru, you're being too nice. Qrow feels uncomfortable around very nice people. ]

Probably, [ he means that they might meet again. Hopefully in more pleasant circumstances. ] I don't think people know how to spell my name. It's Qrow with a Q, not a C.

[frombetrayal]

With a Q?

[That's... an interesting way of spelling it, but if that's the name his parents gave him, then she can't really argue.]

I see. I'll keep that in mind - of course, feel free to correct me if I do ever misspell it.
