Kurako hesitated, he didn't want to frighten the girl any more than she already was, but there was no way he could just stand there and let her walk while her feet were already so badly injured. The half elf watched as Solaris began to lead the way to the temple and the girl tried to follow. When she fell to one knee, Kurako moved, it didn't matter if she wanted his help or not, she was going to get it. The thief's heart was far to soft, at least for his own liking.
He dropped the offered piece of fruit and rather quickly scooped her up into his arms. "I won't harm you and I'm sure he won't either." The words were meant to be reassuring, but Kurako wasn't sure how reassuring they were. He didn't know about her power, or her ability, he only knew that she needed help and he was there. So he would help her, even if she refused it. His grip around her as he held her cradled against his chest, was firm but still gentle.
With her in his arms, he began to follow Solaris towards the temple, not taking his eyes off of the other male. He had left the map in that room with the tea and fruit, so it wouldn't do to lose sight of his guide right now.
As long as nothing happened, he would have her inside that temple and sitting on that counter ready to be tended to.
