Had he not been a Warden, she might have felt guilt at pushing him to keep going, especially with a friend gone.

She didn't bring out her second sword just yet, knowing it might be better to continue on with only one drawn. She put her hand on his shoulder briefly and squeezed as she walked, letting him go before he took it as a gesture of pity. "I wish we had more room to fight. This city isn't as open as places back home." Even a city as bustling as Amaranthine didn't have the smaller, more narrow streets Exsilium did.
