Coward
| Definition
cow·ard (kourd)
n.
One who shows ignoble fear in the face of danger or pain.
[Middle English, from Old French couard, from coue, tail, from Latin cauda.]
coward adj.
Word History: A coward is one who "turns tail." The word comes from Old French couart, coart, "coward," and is related to Italian codardo, "coward." Couart is formed from coe, a northern French dialectal variant of cue, "tail" (from Latin cda), to which the derogatory suffix -ard was added. This suffix appears in bastard, laggard, and sluggard, to name a few. A coward may also be one with his tail between his legs. In heraldry a lion couard, "cowardly lion," was depicted with his tail between his legs.
So a coward may be one with his tail hidden between his legs or one who turns tail and runs like a rabbit, with his tail showing.

Now ste did exactly the same , he ran with his tail between his legs.
So he is a coward.
However i would like to post the difference between Ste and Players Like Joe.
Joe is a fighter unlike Ste.He may have left ??? due to his disappointment at the way things are being run,but he left the tribe and not the world.He didnot run away.
To me Je is a Warrior who left the tribe due to some of His tribe mates who were cowards.
