For the sake of their homes and their future, as well as for their children and family.
Even a coward would pick up their weapon and join the fight.
Everyone has something they treasure, something they absolutely cannot lose. If someone tries to destroy these.

All is attended to by Violet with her unique ways to solve the problem.
The townsfolk who gathered to watch were roaring with anger, shouting loudly. They wished they could pick up the stones at their feet and throw them at Halse.
But under Violet's strong persuasion and obstruction, they ultimately managed to restrain their emotions.

Not resorting to violence prevented them from seeming like unruly monsters.
