Beau's halfway across the walkway, seeing the people who'd landed in the water already moving out under various means, pressing forward to check where the skybridge collapsed.

Then the cloud spreads, and not for the first time, she freezes up faced with something unfamiliar and painful and fundamentally unpunchable. How do you punch a cloud? About as much difficulty as punching a ghost. You can see it happen, but you pass right through without doing any damage.

Worse, just standing here breathing reminds her of regrets, the idea of pushing forward brings regrets, and the thought of turning tail brings still other regrets. Every option is shitty. Fuck it, she might as well keep doing what she was doing - check for anyone unconscious or obviously injured, try to haul them back to the dipshit healer hiding under a cloak. With a shaky breath, she presses on.
