[Elidibus is in the kitchen when Lahabrea arrives. That he is home at all is a miracle in itself, he had been so frequently out on patrols in an attempt to protect everyone from what Lahabrea had just undergone. As it is, he is next to the portal as it opens and barely manages to turn before the taller Ancient smashes bodily into him.
A mug clatters to the ground, smashing into pieces upon impact, tea spattering their footwear.
They only just manage to not go down in a heap of limbs.]
Erichthonios, I have need of you here!
[The words are clipped with urgency. Elidibus has an idea of what Lahabrea has gone through but not the full details, nor how fully the man has been affected. What he does is wrap his arms around him to provide both stability and comfort. If he falters, Elidibus will be there to hold him upright. A pillar of strength.

He speaks softly.]
I have you, Lahabrea. You are safe.
