(Trust me, Ciarán's taking the situation seriously, he's just placing his loyalty above his self-preservation instinct.)

"Cave vespertilionem. (Beware the Bat)." Using the free hand he had remaining, Ciarán pulled an explosive bolt out of his coat and threw it at the ground between him and Krishna, knocking the assassin back for a moment. Pulling out the Nocturne Cross again, he slashed at the chains still binding his arm to the tree, freeing it. Having both hands free at least, while his leg was still pinned to the ground, Ciarán switched his weapon to its crossbow form and loaded it with a fresh clip. "These bolts are coated with concentrated Death Stalker venom.  If you place any value on your continued existence, walk away now, because I promise I won't miss."
