[The last couple of days he's looked progressively more exhausted, and it' clearer than ever today, when he has to face the inevitable and send someone home... to what he knows is her death, to possibly never seeing her again. Turns out being able to say good-bye is about as painful as having someone suddenly die on you, how about that. Not just that, but he's also facing others here being upset by those leaving, Athos disappearing on them yet again... It's not a fun day.]
