Book-worm would slowly walk their way back to the carriage. Simply hoping to guide the children along back to the carriage along with the help of Margaret. They did not really want to scare them further or fully remove their hood. It was bad enough when their appearance was revealed around adults. They didn't really need to send children off screaming from an encounter with a monster that got inside their head. 

Hopefully it would be just a quick stop to bring the children to the carriage. Book-worm had kept ahead by roughly ten paces and kept a look out on things. 

They managed to spot Ariues fighting some other figure on the way back and would gesture the others to head in a different direction. They would attempt to leave Ariues with some help however, one that didn't alert the enemy to their position as much either. It seemed like trouble to use a limited attack so early, but Ariues did appear unassisted at the moment and it would be better to help, even a little. 

They hesitated to attack as it seemed they were noticed. They prepared the painful and mind piercing screeches to attack at the knight, should they come within twenty feet of them. The knight with the flaming weapon, didn't appear particularly negatively intended but worried about the well being of the children. It was likely a warrior who was trying to defend the remains of the town on their own.
