There's no time, and he's right. Adele would be far more adept at caring for him. Kneeling quickly beside him, she kisses his forehead and rises with her remaining weapon. Elizabeth knows footing. She knows swordsmanship when she sees it, and the favouring is easy to spot. Amelia needs help, and she'd rather not have two injured on her arms when she walks out of this chaotic mess.
"All right, Amelia- we clear the room, then we work our way out. Archie- Adele is beyond the door, with the others, darling."
The Kin'Corans spare her no time before they lunge at the now-standing pirate.
"Hold fast, for me."
She tries to guard Amelia's side, but it's difficult watching the moves of her assailant and her ally simultaneously. At least they've got the Kin'Coran numbers down to two, but protecting her co-fighter earns her a shallow cut below her ear. She hisses. They have to knock these two out. Then, they can work their way to the door.
She had originally planned on shouldering Archie herself, but if Amelia was not too burdened by her injuries, the pirate felt she could better protect them both if she could fight in her own rhythms.
