[b]"I know."[/b] Was all Iraleth said in response to Rio's mutterings, nodding in agreement. She let him go off, moving back towards Professor Alto and Chunji. 

At least it seemed they were all in agreement that continuing to move forward was untenable. As poorly as the idea of retreat sat with her, it was undeniable that moving forward on the road was suicide should they be assailed again. 

She waved Kann off before any healing could be cast, wanting him to save his efforts for those more injured. With that in mind, Iraleth made her way back over towards the one carriage left, her gaze passing over Chloe without much in the way of emotion. After all, she wasn't going to condemn someone that couldn't fight without Ethos for not fighting. Perhaps this incident might galvanize Chloe and the others like her to learn in the future, but there was no use crying over spilled milk. 

[b]"We're fine, outside of the Professor."[/b] Iraleth responded to her kinswoman, finally sheathing her blade now that it seemed the danger was past. [b]"Next time, we shall see how they fare when the lot of us aren't forcibly crippled."[/b] She stepped up to open the carriage door, waiting for Otis and Fiancetto to return before determining whether there would be enough room or if she would have to walk.
