Sabine remained standing away from the bed for a few moments. Her next steps were slow and silent. She padded up to Meesei's side, swallowed, and then reached to take her hand. She squeezed it hard and took in an uneven breath.

"Meesei," Sabine began shakily, "I am scared." Her voice raised slightly as she continued, "I want to take the silver out of you. You can locate it. You can help, can you not!?"

Janius and Fendros stayed back for now. Janius took Kaleeth's hand and held her close as he watched on.
