Aurion tried to brush some of the bugs off of himself and Kree with his free hand and used his staff to attack the swarm of bugs that still trailed them. The task was proving to be more difficult than he expected. He wished he could help Kree more since she was unable to remove the beetles from her feathers at the moment, but his hands could only reach but so far. He scrambled inside his satchel hoping to find something that could aid them. In hindsight he wished he packed more weaponry instead of bandages, healing potions, and refreshments. He wasn't planning on attacking anything, his friends seemed more capable in that area. He did manage to find one thing, but he was saving it for Zaida. A toxin that proved lethal to most insectoids.<br/>"Kree! I know you don't want to, but you're going to have to drop me. I'm sure you can get rid of them without me in your clutches." Aurion said. Thinking that Kree could fly faster without him, and would be free to use her claws to get rid of the pests. Her movement would be less restrained. Aurion didn't want to see Kree get hurt because of him or even die for that matter. "Don't worry. I can swim." Aurion said to console her, even though it was a lie.
