The city was like a war zone. Elise had experienced war before when Nohr took arms against Hoshido, and no matter where she was, it was awful to see people being hurt. She bustled around the perimeter of a safe area, helping the injured as they stumbled in and healing them up with her staff when she could.
At the same time she was keeping lookout for any of her siblings. Knowing them, they were probably fending for themselves just fine, and even more likely, they were assisting others with their talents and battle abilities being all cool-like. Thinking this, Elise wanted to do her best, too. Though she missed her family, though it was a little lonely being on her own, she also wanted to make them proud. So she gripped her staff and patrolled the perimeter with a sense of purpose. Seeing another man make it into the safe zone, Elise ran up to him.
