Disturbing

"Anastasia, please, you must know that Darla is an important member of the group," said Kaizan. "Her valor is unmatched. She has been with us on many missions. In fact she volunteered to come with us on this one."

"I know, but she behaved too pettily!" said Anastasia, feeling disgusted about her attitude. "And I think you all have contributed to it. Just because she is an integral part of the group, none of you have said anything to her about what happened at the Virgine Falls. I would love to point it out to her, make her realize it, but then should I?" She exhaled heavily and looked at the ceiling. 

Kaizan lowered his head and fidgeted his fingers, not agreeing to her. A moment later, he said in a low voice "I agree. Darla had been on her edge ever since she realized that you have grown close to Ileus. We have been with her for so long, but we have never seen her losing herself to this level. Maybe you are right—all she needs is a big realization."
