Link watched quietly as Sechs seemed to calm down with his words. Good. There was no need for uncontrolled anger in this situation. It would only deepen the panic.

"I've been told about the supposed... additional ill effects of the virus." Link frowned, his attention completely on Sechs, who was clearly miserable, both physically and mentally. The Hylian was quiet a moment, letting his words sink in.

"And I don't see a point in giving up all hope and resorting to killing people." Link looked around for nurses before leaning in closer to Sechs. "I made it to the X-Ray room last night. There was... a clue there, of sorts. We have yet to hit every dead end, so there is no sense in considering death yet." Link's tone was calm and serious. He wasn't going to stand idly when people were thinking about ending their lives without exhausting every option.

Even if it meant going to every person in the whole institute and trying to talk them out of it. Even if it meant patrolling the corridors at night and fighting off every potential murderer with his knife.

They were in this mess together. Turning against one another was distracting people from their final goal.
