At the very least though—after that night—perhaps it feels more her "place" than before. ]

It was a very difficult situation... but Ori, something like that is not your job alone. [ Nor Kazuma's, though he would probably argue the point. ] Anyone would be afraid. Anyone would hesitate.

[ If she hadn't, and wound up severely hurting Eustace--then what? ]

...Besides... I am sure Mr Diluc was equally upset.
