Groto hoped Kairo would understand the double meaning in his words. He knew he could not outwardly appear to support Kairo to his fellow officers, nor ask to meet with him afterward this battle was done and discuss this as much as he wanted to (and trying to convince his fellow officers to stop fighting would do nobody any good; he was just a normal officer with no authority right now). In truth, Groto's mind about Kairo was no different now knowing that he was a part of Faceless. He had no reason to distrust him, no more than he trust Chief Shan.

Groto whistled to Baldar, the eel-hound even recognizing Kairo's scent ever so slightly. He was done fighting against Faceless, but that didn't mean he could not try and help any of the officers who were injured. Groto road away on the eel-hound, going about to his fellow officers who were wounded and assisting them. However, Groto also exaggerated the injury he had sustained from Akane ever so slighty to try and make it seem to his officers to be the reason for his sudden shift to the back lines. ''After the thrashing I've received already as an officer, I don't think they have any reason to doubt I've been hurt again. ''
