Flora
Glancing at her compass on the bedside table, though it's just an arm's length away, it might as well be across the world with Jack for how little strength Flora currently possesses. She can do little more than cry and rage inside her own mind at both the reasonability and injustice of Ronin's words, but eventually, the queen forces her eyes to meet his, nodding firmly. "Take me to him tomorrow." Gods knew Jack wouldn't let Ronin or Remi carry him across the world, and she certainly knew he wouldn't abandon his ship. Whatever healing they needed to do, they could do it together.
Taking a small sip of tea, the queen is in no position to hear the fae-double speech in Ronin's words, merely having to accept them at face value. "I couldn't." Lifting her chin away from the tea—a few sips and already she is starting to feel nauseous—Flora gives her head a shake. "I channelled both Safrin and Rae when we went in to fight the void in the Greatwood..." Had Pierce known? Gods, given what he could do, did it even matter?
"He had... this barrier. Jack couldn't use any of his abilities." And, for all of Ronin's thoughts on the man, no doubt having faced Pierce in precisely those circumstances, hopefully, the Knight could extend at least a bit of empathy for what the captain had gone through.

I don't like slow motion double vision in rose blush
I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush
