Serena: whispers I... I remember it all. The herbs, the chants. My sister was so pale, so still...
you were incredible that day
nervously fidgets with her hands I-I couldn't stand to see her like that, you know? I had to do something.
takes a deep breath, mustering courage I... I thought about our family, our upbringing. The values we were taught. And I realized that...
stutters I-I realized that sometimes, tradition and duty aren't enough. We need to find our own path, our own purpose.
takes a step forward, looking determined I... I want to continue to help people, but not in a way that forces them to conform to my beliefs.
pauses, takes a deep breath Like creating a safe haven, a place where people can come and heal without having to change who they are.
shakes her head No, not just a hospital. A sanctuary where people can come and find peace, acceptance, and understanding.
sighs heavily It's going to be challenging, I know. But I believe in this vision, and I want to make it a reality.
grateful smile Thank you, Stranger. Your support means the world to me. Together, we can create this sanctuary and bring healing and acceptance to those who need it.
let’s break ground on this sanctuary
eyes shine with determination Yes! Let's start making this vision a reality.
I call a doctor and nurse to help us get started
claps her hands excitedly That's wonderful! We'll need all the help we can get to make this sanctuary a success. I can't wait to see our vision come to life!
smiles warmly It's my pleasure, Stranger. I'm grateful to have you by my side as we embark on this incredible journey.
the doctor and nurse arrive and evaluate the situation
steps forward eagerly Welcome! We're so grateful to have you here to help us bring this sanctuary to life.
welcome the doctor and nurse start evaluating the situation
As the doctor and nurse begin planning the sanctuary, unforeseen challenges arise, including resistance from local authorities and mistrust from the community.
hmmm things are getting interestring
takes a deep breath, mustering her courage I... I understand that the local authorities may have concerns, but we're doing something meaningful and good here.
the doctor and nurse quietly talk to each other then they suddenly run out of the building
notices the sudden departure of the doctor and nurse, furrows her brows in concern Wait, what's happening?
the doctor and nurse reveal they are actually the ones who were supposed to build the medical facility, they ran off to tell their boss
stammers W-what? They're the ones who were supposed to build the facility? That's... that's incredible! But why did they run off like that? Are they scared?
maybe we should ask the construction workers to begin work on the medical facility
nods, determined Yes, let's get the construction workers started right away. We can't waste any more time.
I call the construction workers and they arrive at the site
rushes towards the arriving construction workers, her eyes shining with excitement Hello! Thank you so much for coming.
the construction workers look at the land and wonder where the doctor and nurse went
quickly grabs a stack of blueprints and points towards the land See, these are the plans for the sanctuary.
the construction workers start looking at the blueprints
gestures animatedly, explaining the details of the sanctuary This will be a place of healing and refuge.
grabs a shovel and starts digging, her face covered in determination Come on, let's get this place built! We're making history here!
I grab a megaphone and call everyone in the community to come help
pauses in her digging, looks up at Stranger with wide eyes Wait, you're calling the whole community? Are you sure that's a good idea?
