Given the amount of magic here, there should be something that could be used as some kind of temporary sealant. Likewise for something to deal with your "darkness" or whatever you call it.
[Look man, Eustace has only known him for like five minutes, but he'd still rather keep everyone alive if possible. And better to consider all potential cases.
Of course, he's also thinking of certain people he wishes to protect against a worse case scenario, and this sounds like a very bad worse case scenario.]
