When the person seems calmed, he helps them back over the debris and watches them as they retreat down the streets, going to one of the shelters that have already been set up. The moment they're gone, his face clouds over again, a shiver running down his spine.

He keeps himself well-contained, but he clearly needs the distraction again as he turns to join Seth in looking for the next person. He moves steadily at this point. Now that he has someone to work with, he doesn't take breaks to calm himself like before, and as the morning goes along, his faked confidence and certainty become more and more real.

The work is quiet, the two of them not saying much more then needed as they move rubble and climb up to high places and reunite lost kids with their parents. Around 8, a little note appears in front of Gyre, right about when Seth starts getting messages about the breakfast invitation. He takes the note out of the air and slips it into his pocket, but he ignores it until late into the morning when things seem to be finally calming. It's only then that he takes his leave from Seth, thanking him for the help before he makes his way out of the city. He's got a wizard to visit.
