Ice will peek out into the hall to see what is happening, then call out, "Have you had enough of death? Will you let us leave in peace now?"
Unless she sees something of concern, Ice will carry Sokei, Althea will carry his gear, and we will very quickly head for the exit. If we need to fight, Sokei will be left on his own. We will try to save him, but if it comes down to him or us, he will have to be left behind. If it is possible for Sokei to walk with some assistance, Ice will try to just assist. If he is still unconcious she will try to carry him over her shoulder.
"Althea, you take Sokei's stuff and I will carry him. Let's try to take him with us, but remember, if the only way out is without him, we will need to save ourselves."
Althea sets Sokei's gear in the cart and puts her back to it, to push with her feet and legs and get it moved out of the way.
Ice holds Sokei over one shoulder, impatient but stoic and watchful for others that may be hiding.
The party will move as quickly as possible for the exit, watchful for other miners. Althea will have bow and arrow drawn. If any other men are encountered, Althea will shoot carefully and Ice will drop Sokei and fight.
Ice will look in her healing bag to see if she can find something to give to Sokei that will help him regain consciousness.
If successful, they will all take out one of their rations and eat them while heading back to camp. Althea will light a torch and carry it to help scare off the wolves.
If not successful, then Althea and Ice will each take out one of their rations, and eat as they walk. Althea will light a torch and carry it to help scare off the wolves. She will continue to carry Sokei's gear while Ice carries Sokei.
We will walk back towards the village where we will seek treatment for Sokei, make a trip to the market, and look for others who might want to join us to either go back to the mine or on another venture.
Are you saying warriors wouldn't be trained in at least the basics of how to treat wounds? You're the GM so if that is the case then we will just need to get him to an herbalist when we get back.

Everyone has a common sense knowledge of how to stop bleeding and to secure open wounds, but that not mean they know which herbs to use to heal, if it was such a common knowledge then there will not be a need for the profession of a herbalist. By the way, keep in mind that there are doctors in the World of Medieval, some, if not all work in conjunction with herbalist.
UPDATE: See latest post in thread, 'staying alive'.
JB, how come you didn't have us eating. I posted that we would eat rations while walking? I knew we needed to eat, I just didn't want us to spend a lot of down time doing it.
