"If we fight them we will definitely destroy Riverwood. If I released power to battle him, I would need to fight back with equal and opposite force. That would simply lead to a lot of colleteral damage, because energy doesn't cancel energy out. They deflect off each other and explode" noted Aeren, as he decided to pick Asciene up and carry her.

Turning to Alyssa, Aeren decided to command "follow me closely. We need to move before we are dragged into battle. I never intend to lose and if I go full on it's likely a lot of innocent people around us will die from spells missing their intended mark. My attack spells aren't the most precise."

With a leap, Aeren turned into light and flew up the path he came down on. He didn't know if Alyssa was capable of following, but he would rather just get out of danger as fast as he could. Fighting Pride did take up magicka, and he wasn't exactly in top form. Aeren wasn't the sort that sacrificed himself for others, after all, even if he thought of them sometimes.
