Cressida didn't need to be told twice. Without waiting to hear further instructions, she dashed away, ducking low to avoid inhaling too much of the smoke or feeling the heat of flames against her skin. Every inch of her wanted to yell out for her brothers, to ensure they really weren't inside of the tavern, but as she reached the barrel of water by the bar (if it was really water), she realized there were bigger things than herself.
Before she could cough out anything to Eden, she spotted a waitress on her knees behind the bar, and dropped to her own, forcing out a choked Go, stay low and waiting for the girl to scurry her way out of the tavern toward safety. Upon standing and catching the vague outline of the blonde through the smoke, the archer dipped her sleeve into the water and held it to her mouth and nose to gasp into.
