The knight was familiar with how the Luminary looked when he was tired. And with the light barb that was leveled his way had him fix the younger man with a half hearted glare. "I do not need as much rest as you believe that I do."

Hendrik hadn't been able to rest no matter how much he tried. Some of this was all too familiar, people in pain and needing comfort or reassurance as they mended and healed. It had been something he tried to do for his soldiers of Heliodor, and he never tried to begrudge them his presence since it meant a great deal to them.

There always seemed to be less of things like this when Jasper had the reins and the two worked together, but that was something he never admitted out loud. But for now he stepped away from his charge and looked around.

"There are more than need tending to and you will exhaust yourself if you do not have an extra set of hands." Meaning his of course.
