Reira gives a firm nod- she didn't expect Strange to make it immediately. But he appeared, and that's what they needed. Not far from them the light from Steven and Amethyst fusing into Smoky Quartz arises and then fades... With a slight glance toward the prisoners and Bezaliel, Reira whispers to him.

Herbert has it right, after all. "Don't worry-" Reira starts more optimistically. "We're going to try and get everyone, probably...well..." she adds quietly. "They are..." The ones who can fight, that is. Not. Not them specifically. That would be silly.

Her voice is soft, but she continues. "Samyaza tried. It's not her fault, it's the Bear's- just make sure you can tell everyone what happened, if something bad happens, ok?" She swallows- she's doing a good job at keeping up a bit of hope, and trying not to seem scared, but...

It's hard. It's hard, everyone is so big, so much bigger than her, and it's hard.

"...Bad things always happen because everyone else doesn't know what did happen, so... ...keep an eye on this place, for now. We just need to stop the shadows. If...you know something that can stop those, we can try that too." Shame Strange can't just shine a bright light through all the shiny surfaces or something. That'd be a ticket for sure.
