[ He needs a task to do, some action that he can complete in order that he not feel so entirely useless. It should not be a surprise that he fears losing Alkaid and her sister, but to have it presented so plainly in front of him was a shock he was ill prepared for.
He is beyond relieved that both of them are still with him, even if they are both hurt; perhaps that is why he feels as though he would run himself ragged if it meant seeing them back on their feet again. Never mind that it would hardly help either sister if they had to then assist him following their recovery. But the point remains that there is very little he would not do in order to help them. ]

Not long after, K'thisru stirs, responding to Alkaid's touch. She still needs more time to rest, but Aymeric's steps as he left the room registered in her mind, and although Alkaid's tread is far lighter than Aymeric's, she still needs to reassure herself that her sister is still there. ]
