Rin just collapsed? We were talkin' and I went to leave and- they just went down? No warnin' or nothin' just on the floor-
This drone is useless, wouldn't go get help-
They're not responding? Like there's a pulse but barely it's slow, there's no blood, nothing looks wrong, I can't see anything wrong, they just won't wake up and I don't know what the hell to do-

Illarion will have to find out what else might have been true about that. Now's not the time to ask.
He slinks off again, quietly, once he's satisfied nothing needs his attention.]
