Atom hurries to fetch some water. He runs to the ship's kitchen, grabbing one of the many canteens left out for the forces and a couple dish towels. "Have you seen any of the healers?" he asks passing Corsairs. The only helpful answer he gets is that one of them is busy treating those who fell in the battle with the witch and the witch herself. He asks them to come help move Donnie closer to the small infirmary as soon as possible. "He's conscious, but he needs his injuries checked!"

When he returns, Donnie looks about ready to faint. Could he be in shock? In too much pain to feel it correctly and about to collapse from it? He unscrews the cap of the canteen and pours some of the water onto the towels.

"Donnie. Here, let me see your hands," he says to him. "I've got a canteen if you want a drink too."
