He'd been keeping an eye on the other healers, if only because he liked to know everything that was going on around him. Horace leaned against a wall and wiped the sweat from his brow; he felt like he'd been running nonstop. The blood on his hands was drying, coming off in crusty flakes that smeared against his tunic. It was the blood of multiple knights: some living, some dead, all who had given more to the battle than he. Horace frowned; Lawr had been working nonstop, from what he could see. The other man moved with an odd preciseness, as though he were a doctor before. Horace stepped forward, intending to force the gold apprentice to slow, if only for a bit.

A man's scream stopped him and he glanced over. Screams were, after all, not uncommon here, but this one. A white knight-apprentice ruthlessly wrapped him up, her hands rough and uncaring. The wounded would live, but... Horace frowned and clapped a hand on her shoulder.

"You could be a little gentler, you know. They've been through a lot."

Ruth was careful to maintain a neutral expression as she went about following the code of the White Knights. There was an odd sentiment in her, something that made it easier to watch other people suffering even if the stench of blood and burnt flesh was threatening to overwhelm her with nausea.

Her current patient seemed to be a tad more sensitive and squeamish than the others. She huffed but kept her face calm, it wasn't as if she enjoyed hurting others. She had no idea why then, some fellow clapped her on the shoulder and remarked on her performance. She tensed, for a split-second, before finishing with the bindings. The last thing the blonde wanted was to give him anymore reason for criticism.

When she turned, her lips pressed into a thin line, Ruth ended up needing to crane her neck to meet the man's gaze. Sort of. Her bangs were there, obscuring her eyes, and if they weren't the hood of her garment helped conceal them. She drew herself up to her full height and when she realized it didn't do anything, she promptly donned the mantle of meek servitude.

"It is a necessary evil," She began, her deep rolling baritone sounding wholly inappropriate for her small frame and stature. "That one needs to be cruel to be kind. The cure is often more painful than the injury."
