"We might need to leave it, rather than fight it."
This is Derrica's real preference: leave and come back with a group properly equipped for the business of dispelling spirits.
But recognizing it might not be as simple as leaving—
"Something's drawn them here. We might be able to find and destroy that. It must be here, though the search would be..."
Trailing into silence, Derrica's hand settles at Abby's back between her shoulder blades. There's nothing to be done to protect her from all of it. A barrier can keep out any attacks, but it won't dispel a spirit wearing the face of someone she might recognize.
