"Yes." Rokuro doesn't look thrilled at the order, but he will obey it. As useless as he may be in the back of the trunk, it isn't as if he is contributing in any way up front.
He climbs out of the truck without further commentary, ripping a piece of fabric from the bottom of his already cropped shirt to tie over his face. What's a little more skin on the battlefield? Opening the back of the truck (after some confusion how) Rokuro is glad to have covered his face, if only to mask his reaction to the overwhelming scent of fear and death.
The prisoners are either too ill to notice his appearance, or shrink away from him in fear. Although unsure of himself before, Rokuro steels himself now. Determined to provide these people with what they need most: Kindness and comfort.
"Fear not. I am from the Witch's Camp. We are bringing you to safety." At that, the prisoners begin to stir, some quietly talking amongst themselves as others cry out in relief. Rokuro begins attending to those closest to him, asking after their ailments with a soft voice and warm touch. Whether or not he can do anything to help, he will listen.
There is one thing Rokuro can do that he had not described to Codi, and that is his ability to look into a person's body and see their blood and organs. When he sees a body that no longer registers to his chalcedony eye, he covers them as best as he can and moves them away from those who are still alive.
