Deus Ex Machina time! Grom to the rescue! Lila should be herself again, at least for the moment -- but sorry, I guess this means that Grom has the ability to command Lila to attack, at least until she can get rid of that gem. On the bright side, the gem gives you other perks and abilities, when it's not driving you mad. :)
But really, since we've lost so many people that I had been kind of depending on for plot purposes, I think we need to regroup a bit.
What do you think would be awesome to do in this RP? How do you want to see your character develop? Any particular abilities, etc. you want to obtain along the way? What's working for you so far? What's been not so great? Let me know where you wanna go, and we'll steer things that way.
