Well. The Bull had to go and say that, didn't he? "Save a good man's life," when Dorian has been foolish, selfish, and churlish his entire life. Felix, on the other hand, had never been anything but a kind, generous man, who deserved far more than the universe saw fit to give him.
It should have been Dorian to make the choice to stand his ground and send Felix ahead. It should have been Felix who warned the Inquisitor of the impending assault.
It should be Felix here, trying to make light of this shitty situation. What's the worst that could happen? Felix would ask. I can't be more blighted.
Dorian carefully folds that thought away, pushes aside the guilt along with it.
Instead, he glances over his shoulder, sympathetic and a little curious. Gently, he asks, "Who was it you lost?"
