The pallor of his skin does not go unnoticed, and Skellig is quick to return the strength as best he can, close the wound over once the death has been pulled free and into the cup; Kreyu will get rid of that, he is certain of it.
A simply skin repair is a quick-fix.
"To booby-trap the key," Skellig muses. "Must mean either he was quite paranoid, or whatever is in those chests is quite valuable."
It also means that he will not be letting the 'human' open them; he steps back through the door into the quarters, picks up the key (after careful inspection of it) and then moves to the chests and the locks. Those also get inspected for other traps...finding none, he opens the first lock, and then carefully (listening) lifts the lid of the chest.
