It was at that moment that I realised just why St Mary's was always banging on about interaction. You are not there to interact. Observe, document, and record. Don’t get involved. It wasn’t only the dangers of inadvertently changing history, but the emotional toll as well. How many people had died today? Matron? The blind boy? My job was to watch events unfold. To record and document. To observe. To stand apart. Not to interfere.
