[It's been almost two weeks since her return, but only now does Pao-Lin feel up to letting people know she's back. She'd actually rather just keep quiet about the whole thing, but she knows that she met with a few of her friends while she was still Shifted, not to mention that she's been effectively "gone" from the village for almost a whole month. People are going to ask her questions when they see her again, and she really does not want to keep repeating her horror story over and over. Well, she supposes she might end up doing that here, but since it's a written post she'll be able to distance herself a little.]
Hi everyone, this is Pao-Lin. Sorry to anyone who ran into me a few weeks ago, after the Malnosso messed me up. I'm back to normal now.

Hey, sorry I haven't --
[The filter breaks. So does her heart, a few seconds later.]

[At some point in the day, Pao-Lin will head out to the foresty areas around the village, just to clear her mind (or attempt to). It's a compromise between finally leaving her little dragon cave while still trying to avoid others as much as possible. She doesn't usually frequent the woods, so she doesn't wander too far out, and she takes her time in walking the area. (She also makes it a point to avoid the general vicinity of CH1. Too many bad memories there.) When Pao-Lin gets tired enough, she'll lean against a tree to rest, either by napping or just staring blankly at nothing in particular. It's fortunate that the weather is much nicer than her mood, even if she's not necessarily in the best of states to appreciate it.]
