「Crystal War Requiem」

"Time will heal all wounds"

Sauntering through the halls of the palace was quite enjoyable to Giorno. Having been very busy back on Earth with running Passione, he could use any opportunity he could get to take a break. Though Mista was always there to carry some of his burdens with him, they were only two people shouldering the weight of an entire organization that spans across the country of Italy, still unfamiliar with the layout of the castle he happened across an intersection. Randomly choosing to go right, he continues his stroll down the unknown path.

"It's quite astonishing that this castle is still standing for a nation that is at war with another empire." journeying down more monotonous hallways for roughly 30 minutes, two white doors with a bright red cross imprinted above them soon came into view. With nothing else better to do, Giorno made his way over to the double doors, which upon closer inspection, has a small glass window allowing him to peer inside the room.

Peeking in, there were many injured ponies with missing limbs and casts that warped around significant parts of their bodies. Some had several bags of IV hooked onto them, some having metallic braces that held their bones together to help speed up their recovery, and some even seemed to be barely clinging onto life.

"Sir Giorno!"Giorno spun around, a maid in the distance was jogging towards him while hugging a relatively thick book in between her arms and her chest, slowing her jog to a halt in front of Giorno. She took a second to catch her breath. Stretching out her arms, she presented the book to him,

"As you requested, Sir Giorno, Princess Celestia has given me an order to deliver this book to you." the maid handed the book over to Giorno. He took a glance at the front cover. It reads,

~ The Complete Series of the anatomical structure of Pony kind. (Including Alicorns!) First Addition.~

"Perfect timing! Thank you very much. Please thank the Princess on my behalf as well."

Bowing, the maid dismissed herself and walked away. Turning back to the doors, Giorno walked into the Infirmary. The mixed smell of iron, herbal essence, and fresh bandages quickly filled his lungs. The majority of the treated patients were already resting, so Giorno didn't draw so much attention to himself, which was a plus. Walking over to the more seriously wounded bunch of the patients, he stopped at the side of an Earth Pony stallion that is missing a right arm with two leg braces and a cast over his neck.

"Um, excuse me, Sir, but the visiting hours are not until tomorrow-" The timid nurse was cut off abruptly by Giorno raising his hand,

"I'm not here to visit. I'm here to help." opening the thick book and flipping to the pages on the analysis and anatomy of an Earth Pony, he read through the cellular make-up of the connections between the Thigh, Stifle, and Hock rather quickly, though the reading made the nurse that stood dumbfounded behind him, he inquired the nurse while still reading the paragraph,

"Excuse me but mind if I asked what injuries did this stallion sustained? please be as detailed as possible."

"O-Oh! Um, sure thing! If I remembered correctly, he endured several deep cuts that severed muscles, tendons, nerves and some bone fragments along his thighs down to his hooves. His right arm got completely sliced off, and he suffered heavy physical trauma to his throat and neck while fighting a General. It'd be a miracle if he could walk again."

Crouching down, Giorno materializes「G.E.R」, hovering its open palm over the shattered legs of the earth pony,

"Sir! What are you doing!?" briskly the nurse made her way over to Giorno, intent on not letting him carry on whatever that he is about to do, just about she was to grab him, he spoke up,

"Miss, you said it'd be a miracle if he could ever walk again, right? well then, let me demonstrate that miracle to you."

Holding the book in his left, Giorno used「G.E.R」to imbued the bandages covering the stallion's legs with life. The applications took morphed into different nerves, tendons, and tissue cells needed to replace the host's body's missing ones. They assimilated themselves into the opening in his legs, filling up the empty slashes in his thighs and fully repairing his lower body free of scars.

Moving up to his arm, utlizing「G.E.R」to break the metallic pieces off the leg braces and forcing it together into a lump of iron, he breathed life into it. The iron lump morphs and contorts into the shape of a right arm that mirrors the resting earth pony's left arm. Giorno removed the bandages covering the bloody stump where his right arm used to be and pressed both limbs together. Warm golden light filled the wound, fusing them on a cellular level.

Finally, he moved up to the neck area, hovering both of「G.E.R」palms onto the sides of the cast and repeated the process, this time rearranging the form into different nerve cells to reconnect the severed nervous system to the legs and replaced the bruised throat with a new one,

"Gahh!" the stallion sprung upright, sweating and gasping for air. Gently, he caresses his neck with both of hands,

"w-what? my throat?" a raspy voice spoke. Looking down and examining his legs. They were perfectly healed, and not a spot of blood present on them. Gazing to his right, he took a double-take, realizing his missing arm is back where it was amputated.

"My right arm!"

The nurse couldn't believe what she was seeing. Some random creature strolled into the Infirmary, used weird healing magic, created new body parts for the injured pony, and healed him to back full health. Rubbing her eyes to make sure that what she was seeing wasn't an illusion, she turned to look at Giorno, who was glancing back and forth between the book and the stallion.

"Pardon me, but do you feel like you are developing any symptoms? any muscle aches or pain in the newly recovered areas?" Giorno leaned closer to the patient, checking on his physical being for any limb replacement defects he might have had while creating it for him.

"Well, other than the slight burning pain sensation that is still present where my injuries used to be, I feel pretty great! Thanks for taking care of me, Doctor..?"

"Giorno Giovanna, and I am no doctor. I'm just happy to help." getting up. He glanced at the rest of the recuperating patients occupying the room before turning back to face the stunned nurse who is still trying to comprehend what Giorno had just done,

"Nurse, I am going to help heal the rest of the patients here. Can you bring me some inanimate object that isn't of value to you anymore? it's alright if it's dirty or isn't cleaned, any object will do."

"W-what? Oh! Sure thing!" snapping back to reality, she hastily went to retrieve some blood-stained bandages and used paper documents. Giorno made his way to the next bed. This mummified pegasus stallion was awake. Summoning「G.E.R」he crouched down to him.

"Sorry, sir, but it is going to hurt a lot."

For the next hour for when Giorno was in the Infirmary, screams can be heard from the Palace's entire west wing. It was relentless. The patients that were next in line for Giorno to 'heal' them was either praying to Celestia for a quick death or was already unconscious from the pressure and fear they were experiencing before their final moments in Equestria.

Of course, all the commotion has drawn the princess's attention along with a small group of Royal Guards accompanying her. The patients were over the moon, a glimmer of hope shining in their darkest hour. Their savior, Princess Celestia, was here! Although the moment Giorno explained what the was doing, Celestia turned to the anticipating occupants of the room with that signature motherly smile of hers,

"Please get well soon, my little ponies,"

Their smiles were quick to leave their faces, seeing the princess walking back out of the room and her guards followed suit, but before the Guards left, they turned to face their recovering comrades and mouthed out.

"Don't die."

Tears were shed that day, and souls were destroyed. Finally finishing with the last patient, Giorno swiped the sweat away from his neck and forehead.

"Nurse, I think my job is done. Can you show me the directions to the cafeteria? I'm famished."

"It's to the right straight down to the level above this floor," she said calmly, though she won't be getting the screams of torture out of her mind anytime soon.

"Grazie." thanking her and exiting the room book in hand, Giorno followed the directions that the nurse gave him. As he walked further away, cheering sounds can be heard coming from the Infirmary, which made Giorno stop and look back in curiosity.

"Must be my imagination." journeying down more long corridors once again, he managed to find his way to the spiraling staircase connecting the upper and lower floors. Making his way up to the higher story and reaching the front Cafeteria, Giorno was just about to walk in until he heard a familiar voice calling him from behind.

"Giorno?" turning back, Giorno looked for the person that called him. It was the same Wonderbolt mare that sat with him on the Carriage ride to Canterlot.

"Ah, I remember you, you're the Wonderbolt mare that sat next to me on our ride to Canterlot, yes?" he said while giving a soft smile,

"Yup, that's me. Anyway, what are you doing here? getting a bite to eat?" The mare questioned while stopping in front of Giorno.

"Yea, I had just finished healing several injured guards in the infirmary and built up quite the appetite. It would be great if you could show me around the Cafeteria, Miss..?"

"Oh sure, I don't mind showing you around, and the name's Wynd, Cyclone Amber Wynd. But most of my friends calls me Golden Wynd since 'Amber' is a double entendre that also meant gold or golden. Anyways, enough of me rambling, c'mon, let me show you around then!" Grasping Giorno's wrist, Wynd pulled Giorno into the Cafeteria.
