She hesitates. She should notify Grandfather. She should return to the castle and serve as Caster's Master once more. She should do what she said she would at the beginning of this war, for the sake of the Einzbern family.
She should have died in that battle, in defense of the family's wish. She would have, had it not been for him. The knowledge isn't new, she supposes, but organizing it in this manner speeds up some of her systems and slows others. Her circulatory system pumps enough blood to bring sweat to her palms, but her kinesthetic responses are sluggish and stiff, and an action as small as clenching her fists takes twice the time it should. Lara threw herself away in that battle, and now what more does she have to give?
"I'll stay," she says at last. "There's a good source of prana here. Perhaps it will make recovery easier."
