She at least has the decency to feel really guilty; not that she made Sunjata follow her and attack, but because she didn’t immediately disengage. Wessex knew who it was, she knew that if lightning landed, it would hurt him, and she knew he wouldn’t be able to reach her through the bond.
This is her fault (mostly), and she can say again that he doesn’t deserve this.
The bird comes hurtling through the clouds and she knows what she’s looking for - it takes her a moment to spot the man and as she nears, she can see that he’s bleeding. A lot. Starting her transformation back before she fully lands, Wessex is a bit ungainly and ends up off balance, catching herself on her hands and knees before bouncing back and running towards the Flood. “Sunjata! I’m sorry! Here, let me -” and then she’s reaching for him, trying to find a wound to press on, to keep everything that should be inside, inside.
