As funny as a "Lover of Love" would be... I might as well ask just to be safe. Are you an Avenger?

“ I have nothing to avenge. I had a beautiful life. Not like the others.”
Alright, no hidden angst to look out for.
You ever wrote poetry?
“No! And…. Hidden sadness? Delusion Trigger activates No. nothing was in my life that would make me that unhappy. I had an ordinary and beautiful life.”
...Oh.
Oh dear.
Uh... are you more closely associated with folklore rather than historical fact?
"Indeed. I suppose a life as beautiful as mine was was too perfect for history."
"Indeed. Let's wait together! And as for being called a ghost, yes! And I don't even know why! I mean, it's not like I was around after I died or anything. I died peacefully along with my love! But for some reason I'm called some sort of ghost!"
Delusion Trigger is very much activated
"Fufu, if you are what they call a ghost, you don't seem to be a vengeful one, at least. And dying peacefully together with your love... that sounds wonderful. I wonder if I could ever experience something like that with my love. Hopefully not before I watch our son grow up, of course. Ah yes, as for your name... is it Otsuyu?"
"Indeed! Now you see, don't you! I was never a ghost! They just claimed I was dead beforehand to split us up. But it didn't work. And we were happy until we died in each other's arms. I still have no idea why I'm a Servant, but... Lover, Otsuyu. Well, it's been wonderful to meet you. And I hope you find your husband soon."

"Oh my, this is a new experience. Normally I'm the one asking questions for diagnosis, but it seems the positions have been reversed. Go on, then. See if you can 'diagnose' my True Name. Not to brag, but I am known across several different fields of studies, so I reckon it shouldn't be too hard for you to pick up on 'symptoms' that could deduce my identity."

Were you associated with alternative or traditional medicine?
"Both. I was a practicing doctor like my father was, and while I consider myself a man of science, you can't immediately dismiss 'alternative' medicine as pure nonsense either. You may be surprised at what some of those herbs can do in the right situations."
"A fine opening question. You could have led with that to narrow down the possibilities earlier on, but I digress. You are proceeding well in the diagnosis. To answer your question, yes, I am Chinese."
Did you travel a lot?
Are you Li Shizhen?

-- The Traveling Doctor's Oath of Remembrance --
"Hoho, excellent work! Four questions, not bad at all! Yes, yes, I am Li Shizhen, traveling doctor, and author of the Compendium of Materia Medica, or the Bencao Gangmu in my native tongue. After so many years behind the desk, I didn't think I'd get another chance to put my knowledge into practice. If my father could see me now... I wonder what he'd say? Ahem, in any case, a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I don't know if my hands are as adept as they used to be, and I'm sure I've missed a few centuries' worth of medical advancements, but that is no cause for concern. It's just like back then. I'll familiarize myself with the current era's methods and revise my treatments accordingly."

"Me, really? Now, this is surprising... Though an intriguing encounter all the same. You have me curious about you, oh strangers, just as I imagine you yourselves are curious about me. How much of what I did, of what I tried to do, remains in you all, my successors from the coming centuries? Reward was never my aim, but a man can't help to wonder as to his legacy. Even a man lost as I, haha. Please, ask your questions. As you enlighten me - connect to me - in the asking, I shall endeavour to do the same for you in answering."
