Any flowers that had been in Azana's hair at the beginning of the day were gone. It was during some time in the basement that they all fell away, even any branches or vines were also gone. Leaving her hair to be simply that. Hair. As Elliot tried to soothe her down, that only made Azana cry harder - if that was even possible in that moment. Her grip on his shirt lighten for a moment, and her hands pressed against his back instead. Though only for a moment before one hand slid away and moved up to her face to try to wipe her tears away with the sleeve of her sweater.
Azana gave a little nod when Elliot admitted that he should have told her the truth. She couldn't really disagree with that. Things would have been a lot easier if he had said something. But she couldn't find it in herself to be mad or upset that he had not. He was trying to help her while following the rules of his guild. Guild law wasn't to be messed with. And Elliot had been the one that saved her. The young woman took in a deep breath, trying to force herself to calm down a little. "Y-You did what you what you could," Azana whimpered slightly, pausing for a moment to take in another deep breath to keep going. "You saved me Elliot, I couldn't ask for more. I...I just feel like such a fool."
