[Maul takes the wad of cloth off his arm and glances down at the Vileblood oozing from the injury. It's slowing but not completely stopped, so he goes back to pressing it down. Then he looks back over at Peter.]

As I have said before, you are under my protection now. And you are no good to me dead.

[He's got pragmatic reasons for doing this. After all, there will be no benefit to having Peter's body die, which will most certainly kill Paimon as well. He turns to look and see where they need to go through the jungle.]

Come. We need to move. [He just sort of automatically assumes Peter will go with him. The boy hasn't exactly shown to have a strong spirit when it comes to facing up against Maul. As they walk through, shoving aside bushes and large-leafed plants, Maul speaks to him.] You are weak because you are afraid. And that fear holds both you and the demon back. You cannot reach your full potential as long as you remained scared. You must learn to harness it rather than let it rule you.
