The sight of Kimlee’s spectral form came as a shock to Itsuki, who had already been tormented by visions from the strange mist that occupied Rebena. His initial reaction was just to break down crying - though he knew that death was part of the cycle, and it couldn’t be avoided, he would have done almost anything to stop Kimlee from having died in this place - so soon after she had been found and revived? He knew that Eien would be devastated as soon as he had time to fully process the situation - but the damned mist had begun to dull all of their sense of reason and he doubted that any of them could truly process what was happening. He imagined that, to Kimlee, it felt much like a dream that she desperately wanted to wake up from.

As she called for Chyou and Itsuki to help, he simply nodded, and resolved to get on with the task as best as possible given the circumstances. The more death that could be prevented now, the better. That was all that could be done.

”We’ll revive you, Kimlee. Somehow.” Itsuki added, nodding and gathering his resolve as much as he could. Despair was still at the forefront of his mind, and the mist was still dragging him down into the darker part of the psyche - but for Kimlee, and for everyone, he would press on. Chyou was right.
