The drug took some time to get going, but that at least gave the doctor a chance to record what he'd just seen. It was hard for him to even believe that something like that could happen at such an alarming rate. On the other hand, Landel clearly had the ability to change patients into monsters (and to cure it, as he'd just done with that syringe)... The real point of all this was obtaining that crystal.

The doctor continued to watch as the monstrous changes to Kratos' body reverted, though the sight of that human arm laying there without any restraint spurred him into action. He grabbed for a set of handcuffs from one of the room's drawers and then moved over to cuff Kratos to the table. It was a crude restraint method compared to what they usually used, but after what Kratos had been through, the doctor doubted he'd be able to break through.

A few more moments passed by, and eventually Kratos' breathing started to slow. The doctor smiled and drew close again. "I told you we wouldn't leave you to rot. I imagine you could have used that drug a few times yourself." The doctor knew exactly what sort of horrors Kratos had seen, and saw no reason to step around them.
