With your big heart, you praise God above, but how's it working out for you, honey?
Whatever had overtaken Bastien, it was refusing to easily let him go; he found his head full of a deep, difficult fog which clouded his every decision. He had just enough presence of mind to make sure Azrael was cared for, finding those that weren't sick and organising who could care for his child in his absence: it would take the world itself stopping to prevent Bastien from making sure Azrael was safe.
He'd come to the Oasis with the thought splashing some water on his face might help, somehow, and he felt bizarrely thirsty. Of course, he knew logically what it was he thirsted for, but with no one around he could bite, Bastien hoped he might be able to relieve himself with that which used to hydrate his body. At the very least, it kept him out of people's way for the moment.
Finally reaching the edge of the water after a while of wandering, he knelt and dipped his hands into the dim depths of the Oasis, bringing the water up to his face. In the evening air, it was refreshingly cool, even if his dimmed sense of temperature could not fully appreciate it...but it seemed to do little to satisfy his thirst. Sighing, he stared down at his reflection, begging it to tell him what was wrong.
