Yesss. [She gives her head a half bob, turning her head to study the soldier. Her wings give a half flutter as he mentions his part in the course.]
I was nearly at you when... [Shed been yanked here. She hadn't even been able to prove the effectiveness of her course... she hadn't been able to finish it... who knew if she'd really have been able to.] I was pulled here... [Softer.] It was a foolish idea.
[The she glances back at Aubri, pulled out of her thoughts.] Sketi! You were willing to help which was more than nearly anyone else offered. I'm only sorry I wasn't able to pull you out as planned. [Wait... That was another thing...] Aubri... How long have you been here? [Because she'd only just been in the course, set on his 'rescue'.]
She would feel like an even bigger failure if she knew :(
