Skellig has no issue with getting the both of them over the wall safely, and while he does not stop listening for the footsteps of the one who was stalking the girl, he allows his focus to shift to the sounds of coughing and a weak heart. Much too weak. She said her Momma had not gotten out of bed this morning and was so very pale...
She is leading him so confidently in her steps, even if he would clearly be able to feel where he is being pulled towards.
Briefly he wonders what might be of the girl's father, as they near the doorway. The child did not mention him, so perhaps he is not here for one reason or another. Illness, death, travel, occupation- who is to say. The sense of suffering and overwhelming Dark strikes him hard as the girl tugs on his hand and leads him into the home.
