Cordelia
Cordelia nods in response to his own words, knowing there was more to that request than was said, "I will. Promise." She'd die trying. The Shrike makes a silent note to herself to seek Evie out once Deimos leaves. They'd both need the support.
Passing her bow over to the Sword, she watches in quiet awe as he imbues it with his magic, always amazed by his ability to do so. Only when he's done and offering the bow back does she take it, feeling the power in her palm as it courses through the wood, drawing in a breath as she nods. "Yes. It's perfect. Thank you, Deimos." Drawing herself up to standing, the Shrike meets his gaze, "I need to get back. Noah should be home soon." The need to make the most of their time together didn't need to be voiced as she knew he felt the same about Evie.
Pausing for a moment, the Shrike eventually moves around the desk, crossing a line that many wouldn't dare as she wraps her arms around him in a fierce hug. "Make it back safely, Dei." She murmurs, giving him a final squeeze before she pulls back, slipping out the way that she came once more.

All the king's horses, all the king's men
Couldn't put me together again
Couldn't put me together again
