The one sad thing about bringing up the rear is that she's so focused on what's behind the group and at their sides that she completely misses the strike of Chaosbringer that allows them to move forward. If not for Hanako and Sudo she might have a hard time even knowing when it's time to take another step or two back.
"I'm Zeal!" she adds to the chorus of introductions, still struggling to hold off the repeated attacks of torments with her shields, every now and again taking an opportune chance to duck under something she can actually avoid. "My arms are going to feel like jelly by the end of this," she comments to herself, even as she steps up to bash her shield into an oncoming limb. Then in a more cheerful tone she notes, "At least they aren't clumping up!" The thought of having to fight a Nightmare and a Swarm at the same time doesn't sound like a very fun time, if the swarm alone has them on the retreat.
She considers looking over her shoulder to see how much further they have to go but thinks better of it. Everyone is relying on her to bring up the rear, so she has to focus!
