Once she has finished tending to Nessa, Ciri moves to begin helping with transporting the bodies from within the cavern to the built pyre. Once the prayer is lit and the darkness of the night is chased away she moves to sit nearby. Her focus is on the pyre, quietly watching while she idly turns the knife she had used in the battle over and over in her hands.

It is a nervous habit, it was one that got worse in Weisshaupt but there is not much that shows on her face to show whatever she might be feeling now. It continues until her movements finally still and she raises the knife in the air, flicking it into the pyre before her hands go to the pouch on her belt and removing a vial containing one small red shard that glows brilliantly in the light of the fire.

"I was able to remove this from a body in the cells. He had likely died only right before we arrived." She says, tiredly. Ciri remembers Herian's suggestions after the boy's death and she had agreed. There was not much left there but they did have at least one piece from this nightmare. "Maker only knows if it's worth a damned thing but it is worth trying to figure out what happened here."
