"Dapsen," Dalik breathes as Ossanlin abruptly disappears. He turns his gaze to Tara, but she's stuck mid-infestation. He curses again. "Come here, take her," he snaps at Fayleth.
"You...what?" Fayleth is still staring at Dalik, even as the bartender places a shallow dish of water on the bar.
"Take. Keshin." Dalik speaks tersely.
<<If you take him,>> Terenia hisses to Fayleth, <<it will be to drop him on the floor and end his miserable life.>>
Swallowing, Fayleth reaches out, taking Keshin from Dalik's grasp.
"Thank you," he breathes. Moving cautiously, he gathers Joanne up in his arms. The motion shifts the fabric, allowing the wound to flow more freely for a brief moment and he winces, pressing her against his bare chest as he stands. "Alright, I've got you," he murmurs, using the same soothing voice he used with Cameron earlier. Once he gets his feet under him he follows Ossanlin's path, weaving past the tables and chairs of the bar and hoping he isn't too late as he pushes past the front doors and steps onto the Mirage's ramp.
