Jewel & Cris: Yorath Common Room
At each sound that Jewel made, Cris cringed. He knew it wasn't her fault; it would be pretty damn impossible for someone with their full sight to make no sound in a roomful of destruction, let alone someone with no sight at all. All that he could do was hope that all of their attackers were otherwise occupied as she rose.
Once Jewel stood beside him, Cris quickly looked her over just in case she was injured without her knowledge; shrapnel could be sharp as hell and cut you deep and you may never know. Satisfied that she was sound, Cris asked her seriously, "I can lead you back the way I came in, but I can't go with you, Jewel. If I get you outside, do you think you can find your way to the woods on your own?" He was afraid to do so; afraid that Jewel wouldn't be able to move quickly enough to find her way to safety in the woods. "I just...I can't leave without my sisters."
