Yes Shadow heart is kind of making me regret saving her, maybe I should have tried stealing her Cube and telling her to fuck off. Actually my party probably does need a cleric. Then again I'm a druid so does it really?

Shadowhart is a weird character in general due to her reluctance to share and what her actual background is.

It's gets so fucking weird once she admits to being a Sharran, but she's so sweet and nice and every other Sharran we encounter is some fucked up Silent Hill monster of a person and she doesn't even seem concerned by it.

In the House of Healing watching the Surgeon work

"Uh... Shadowhart? Is this really what Sharrans do?"

"Yeah, why?"

"It just seems... A little fucked up."

"What's so fucked up about inflicting pain and loss?"
