From what little Aeleus could make of the battle, it wasn't necessarily an advantage to have more people. It simply made the battlefield more cluttered. Everyone else, however, would need to deal with their own problems; ensuring Ienzo's safety in the long run was far more important.

A single swipe of his blade was enough to dissuade the hand that was following him long enough for his Spirits to grab its attention. It wouldn't keep it away for long, of that he was certain, but it gave him just enough time to move in on the hand that had been menacing Ienzo. If the Reflect hadn't been enough to dissuade it fully, no doubt the following blow from Skysplitter would help ensure that Ienzo had the space he needed to work effectively.
