Yes, I think he understood 5 at least, not sure of the others. The spell is useable within the hour and can be triggered when he takes injury. So as of now the wall is standing :). I'm not sure if they are going out or not, I thought Ntaj was leaving the camp to go deeper into the cave or something to find the chief? Since there is a wall of ice currently blocking their escape out of the camp into the haunted acre woods.

Hence Thomas is following along (to get away from Kyra/Keystone out of fear and Sana/Satilla out of guilt). Points 1 and 2 also chalked up to Thomas just going along with Ntaj's suggestion, unsure how that would be taken into account.

Maybe he'll suggest Cyneburg to come with? Which would be the only edit I think I'll do. Thanks for the intellect check however. I was rather confused IC'ly myself regarding the actions but assumed the chief was inside, deeper in the cave. Ice wall was not going to be melted, and no one was leaving tonight at least.
