The creature had attacked again, targeting himself, true, but also a priestess. She had no guardian, and he was the one present with that role. If he could not do his duty, could not perform that task, what was his purpose?
He was apprehensive, angry, and refused to let something so foolish as being cut off from the copious amounts of Fear they thrived on hold him back. With and angry snarl he charged, sinking his blade into the creature and twisting, trying to carve out bits of the creature. He would do his duties.

The claws swept at the priestess, and she screamed. Not so much in pain, but that underlying terror that was so persistently plaguing her in the presence of the creature. True, the claws hurt as they tore through her shoulder, slicing multiple gouges into dark flesh that instantly ran with dark blood, but it was the proximity of the fog that set her swinging her blade almost wildly at the beat as she fell back and away from the thing.
The injury bled, but it wasn't terribly severe. All the same, when Soren attacked again the black blade in Nergui's hand vanished, and she pressed slender fingers to the slices that marred her shoulder.
Her fear of being consumed by Insanity, while a good motivator, could just as easily cripple her. She stared up at her comrades at the attacked the thing, then down at her arm, hesitantly peeling her fingers back to watch the crimson fluid running down black skin. "No no no.." Would touch be enough to over take her completely? No.. Maybe? Would Medea have sent those infected, the protectors, in against this foe if it meant they could be so easily lost?
Reason told her no, but her fear wouldn't let the thought die, and she shut her eyes tightly against the sight of her own blood on her arm.
Her veil had fallen aside at some point, lying forgotten on the ground.

Their combined attacks were finally enough to destroy the creature, and the priestess all but cowered away from the dissipating fog as it faded away. It was enough to have the made gritting her teeth as she got back to her feet, scowling as have her shoulder another weary glance before letting her hand fall away from it. "I'm fine," she answered curtly, temper raising as Soren suggest she go back to the lair.
But it was obvious, even to her, that she wasn't fine. The fog effected her, and poorly. The deeper they got within the house the worst it was likely to get. There were more of the Insanity creatures, and they terrified her. Not because they were powerful, but because of the potential future they represented.
She couldn't just go back though. Medea had given them a task, and it would have been cowardly to turn away. Shameful in fact. "I can't just go back.." Priestess or no, they all had a part to play in this battle.

So she would not go back. It bothered him, knowing that she was already infected, seeing that creatures could simply loom out of the fog, attack without warning and, despite the fact that they had seemingly felled it fairly easily, there had been four of them against the one. Tseng...had a point, that they were not leaving her to go off by herself, but when insanity was involved...he doubted his abilities to save her. Their abilities to save her. He had failed his duties before, not staying firmly planted at Astridr's side, he should have been killed along with her rather than surviving without his priestess.
He did not want to see the priestess consumed.
He simply nodded, he had voiced his concerns, he would not do so again. But protection was now on the forefront of his brain. "Do we continue to the entrance?" His words clipped a bit shorter than was usual, a remarkable feat. He was not pleased with this turn of events, even if he understood the reasoning. His gaze passed over each of them in turn, trying to access everyone's wounds. They were fine for now, but how long would that last.
