ASH
They had no idea what was ahead and beyond those doors, more so for Asd than anyone else who pretty much had his life on the line here. But there really wasn't much of a choice here, it was either he dealt with Hansel and Gretel here, or he went ahead and get a barbed tongue stuck in his back and eaten by ghouls for his troubles. There was a fight to be had, and they would have that fight right here and now, because that's the only possible way for Asd to survive, the only way for him to move forward, either as a mage or as Werelion. By going through any and all obstacles in his way. What the end goal might be, Asd wasn't sure, heck he didn't even have a smidge of an idea what he really wanted from his life.
