"Wait what? HERE?! OH MAN..."
The giant quickly situates his gear and pack and follows Ande

There is that slight issue with proper communication betwixt you and the tohr. However, J'lact realizes this and has his shaman work the proper magics to communicate. This takes all of ten minutes. They are okay with lending support at this time, just unsure of the scope of the favor asked.
A few minutes after that, the first wormhole opens, with thirteen heavy crodlu lancers with double riders passing through at a full gallop. The dark cavalry looks weary and charred. Not as much by fire, but similar to that of defiling magics burn on plant life. A few have ancient looking spears and arrows jutting out of their sides and mounts.
A look of abject fear is seen on the ashen faces. One vomits as they slow to a halt just outside the city's threshold.

HurK carefully helps/lifts any off their mount that seems like they can use assistance. "What is happening?! What did this to you? Arcane magiks? Negative energy?" he asks any rider he makes eye contact with...
[Bob, If anyone looks like they have life threatening wounds let me know]

As if by instinct, Ande takes flight at the rumble of the passing Heavy Crodlu only to immediately land and begin directing traffic "Comrade Black Lancers, fear not, the kreen are friends! They will help tend your wounds!" Ande beckons the kreen healers with her wing "Come friends, we require healers over here!". As she looks towards those most obviously affected "Tend to your bodies first comrades, then meet with me to debrief and I will tend your wounded minds as best I can" she says as produces her Thought Bottle.
Ande will dump her remaining spell slots into heals and stays on duty as long as she must to get all the Black Lancers tended to. She's not a proficient Healer, but facilitates what she can. She intends to collect as many memories of Graytch as she can from the assembled Black Lancers with her Thought Bottle.
If I read the item description correctly, they should each be able to deposit their traumatic memories of Graytch into the bottle and make sure to use the proper command word (which will be "The Graytch Files; [Black Lancers Name]") so Ande knows how to access them for study. Ande collects data on Graytch, they remember her as 'carrying their sorrows', it's a win-win.
She will rest once the last Lancer is tended to.

Niachi does what he can to stay out of the way of the trauma team and when the current translation magic ends, he is ready with Tongues (7 rounds) to enable comms.
When the worst of the wounded are stabilized, he will seek out any familiar Lancers he may have patrolled with. When the debriefing starts, he will be a calming presence, gathering intel on the magical and mundane forces and where they are now.

The team of wounded calvary seems to be operating with one injured passenger and one hale rider. The group, led by a roundswoman named Laris, salute and lower their wounded wards.
Laris barks out, "We'll be back shortly! Get these defiled comrades back in order... there's hundreds of 'em!"
Realizing that she'd been too vague Laris quickly adds,
"The dead that is."
They quickly release their 13 injured and turn to ride back through the still open portal, blackened lances lowered.

Hurk pulls from his Nexus AND his quick release straps at the smae time and drops his pack and travelling robes. "Have the Tohr lend their divine healing. I'm stepping through and to the right to lend any aid to those trying to make it through. If you join me, step left...
The naked giant pulls his two great Scimitars, places his light orb in between his incisors, closes his mouth and quickly steps through the wormhole then moves 2 steps right and looks to see what's what...

As Laris reports in and charges out, Niachi understands his skills are best applied in the field. WIth practiced sync he straps up alongside HurK, moves his Continual Dark orb to a easy-access belt pouch, nocks a steel arrow in longbow and with the xerichou flapping just above him, marches into the fray, stepping two steps left on the other side.
(Telepathic to xerichou: find safe space to observe, flank my targets, mental attack on my command)

They will help tend your wounds!" Ande beckons the kreen healers with her wing "Come friends, we require healers over here!".
Ande resolves herself to what she knows must be done as she hears Laris' words.
As she watches her comrades charge through the Wormhole, Ande sighs before turning to J'lact (or whatever kreen is the delegated leader of this field hospital function) "Their wounds were incurred fighting a threat to your lands, please care for them appropriately! If we do not return, I am honored to have met you, stay free." she says as she checks her harnessed quiver's inventory then turns to Coden "Shall we?" and without awaiting a response she launches herself through the Wormhole climbing counterclockwise. She will assess the situation before making further decisions.

Coden is a little slow on his feet, but that seems to just be his usual cautious movement; as he couches his spear he moves through the wormhole to support Ande as necessary (and so that nobody is going alone, if things go really wrong).
