Seeing Faolan like this only made Lucien more desperate to want to help him, but he just didn't know what to do. He refused to tell him what was wrong. By now Faolan was very well knowledgeable in everything that the nephilim could do. Was it really something he could not help him with? If so, then that made him even less inclined to leave. He was perfectly able to defend himself, and he always had his barrier's to rely on if he had to, why [i]wouldn't[/i] he be safe? It wasn't like anything could hurt him anyway.

Those thoughts were broken as he only saw Faolan's pain increase. He only felt more useless at the fact that Faolan refused to accept any sort of assistance for him. Was there really nothing he could do but watch his friend suffer like this? He refused to simply give in and leave.
