"Good. Run and find one, savvy? Run fast. Bring him to room ninety-seven, down that way. Someone else involved in the accident's still down there and needs help -- and that right sharp, now."
He gestures with one hand, pointing back over his head and down the corridor, then pins her with a glittering gaze.
"And lass? Might be best if you didn't go mentioning that you saw the lad here at all, savvy? The sawbones might want to go looking him over, and there's no need for that sort of poking and prodding. No need at all."
