Evie
Did you ever love her? Do you know?
Deimos' gentle elbow to her side is more than reassuring, it is steadying, and she smiles gratefully up at him for it. She has faced down LongNight monsters, giant Landsharks, and Banshee Queens; she is more than aware of her own capabilities as a fighter. But amidst demigods and champions, she knows she is the weaker link. So when the elementals show themselves in all their bristling fury, her heart drops through her stomach the moment Noah turns to grab her in his huge arms - not because he scares her, but because she knows what lies beyond the thick fur and warmth that protects her.
Her hands rise immediately to the coarse fur around her, ready to push her magic into him to heal anything that may have been torn or wounded on her behalf; everything happens too swiftly for her to thank him verbally, to feel overwhelmed and touched by his selflessness and care, but she will fix any harm as her gratitude.
And, given the elementals will remain distracted by Ronin and Deimos, the Evergreen commands her earth magic to rise behind the water spirits in a curved wall that will hopefully keep them from retreating out into the vastness of the snow, preventing the party from having to split up.

Evie prepares to heal Noah if he is injured, and tries to structure a wall behind the water elementals to keep them from fleeing and the group having to split up to pursue.

Or did you just never want to be alone?
