Swift had survived, at least, as terrified as he'd been at first. He'd never been sick before, what was he supposed to think? Even assured that he wasn't dying, he was always just a little bit concerned. He just made sure not to say that out loud where Seel could hear it. They did not need another argument and Swift couldn't handle it with the aches he was dealing with. It was damn miserable. How the humans had ever managed to accomplish anything if they had to deal with this sort of thing was a mystery.

He couldn't say what it was, but whatever was setting him off, he needed to get away. Was Seel planning something? He must have been planning something. He was always planning something.
Was there even a way out? Seel had to be out there, watching. Probably waiting for Swift to make a move, do something he didn't like. That's what he did, wasn't it? Maybe he could find out.

Somewhere he knew he wasn't thinking clearly, but the paranoia was drowning it out. He had to...well, he didn't know what. But he had to do something.]
