As for the business between Reynard, Disma, and Miss Lysa, Aaron had originally intended to watch the spectacle, not get involved.
The reason was simple. Reynard, Disma, and Lysa were all adults, and adults ought to have some sense of responsibility. Aaron was neither their guardian nor their superior. He had neither the authority nor any reason to interfere.
