Azzar stood dazed, bow hanging limply from her hands as the creatures in the
room finally registered. She'd never seen anything like them in all her
travels.  Little blue gnomes?!? were trying to pull her away from the fighting,
but she ignored them.

  Then Maleiu grabbed her and held her in a firm embrace.  She didn't struggle
as she was still somewhat dazed by the mayhem, yet it brought her to her
senses.

"Maleiu, don't worry.  No harm was done," Azzar replied.
