[ ... Fine, then he'll take it. He doesn't need it to get up, but he's going to take this to hold his hand. There we go. ]

[Shikamaru pats him on the shoulder when they're both upright, in a gesture that's meant to be comforting but seems to second-guess itself halfway through the motion. He still tries anyways.]

We're almost done here. It'll only take a few minutes to finish what I can carry. I'll talk to the Malnosso and have them send someone back for the rest.

[generalflirt]

We should put a marker here to help them find it then.

[ Or something ... ]

[endgames]

I'll mark the trees on the way back, so they can follow our path. I'm sure their tech-heads can figure it out.

[They'll want to send someone out to look at the altar, if their reaction to the ones in the city were anything to go by. Shikamaru makes to break away now, to wrap things up.]

[generalflirt]

Right, that makes sense. [ Should they make a marker here? Should they...? No, the markings on the trees are probably legit. He nods. He doesn't feel that useful here, but oh well.. ]

[Honestly, Jean probably had a point when he said if they found anyone this far out, it'd be better to bury them where they lie. It's what he'll suggest to the Malnosso. Hell, there's probably even more where these guys came from, between other battle sites and animals dragging people off.

He doesn't say any of this out loud, though. Just suppresses a shudder as he passes by the altar, and picks two more soldiers at random to seal up.]

That should do it. Let's head back.

[generalflirt]

Yeah... let's do it.

[ He swallows. He feels totally useless here. But... no, no, don't think about that - he's doing what they were here to do, and he assisted. Right? Yeah... ]
