Jayce is someone who understands the value in speaking of the dead. He has nothing but good memories of his father, who died when he was a child, and he felt that always remembering him was the way to keep him alive. It's why he feels such a proud connection to the Talis Family symbol too, and puts it on many things. Besides, he thinks that Wanda's brother had to be something special, considering who she is.

He is glad that he could see the impact of his gift before he gets to this next part, so she knows that this was about her first. Jayce looks down at her and takes in a deep breath, shakily letting it out.

"Viktor's fading. The healing isn't working anymore. We always assumed his illness would adapt and push on, and it happened. We're hastily working on the Hexcore and figuring out how to fix him medically and magically." Well, the Hexcore isn't magic per se, but Jayce's magic is part of it. This is all said in sort of starts and stops, blurted out from an emotional place, and then paused.

"If we can't cure him by the end of the month, it's over."
