Élise arrived back at the trench where the others were hiding. Joffrey was the first to greet her upon her arrival.
"What happened to Grimjaw? Did you kill him?"
She paid his question no mind, immediately noticing the absence of a certain someone. Her attention turned sharply to Elizabeth.
"Where's Edmond?"
"Uhh…"
Confused by Élise's tone and the glare she was giving her, Elizabeth was momentarily stunned. She quickly regained her composure and spoke.
"He was worried that Grimjaw might've sent some of his beasts after us, so he went to do some scouting. I offered to go with him, but—"
"Which way did he go?" Élise cut her off before she could finish.
"I saw him head south," Von spoke up.
"Grimjaw was attacking from the north; he had no reason to go south. Idiots! Why didn't you stop him?"
