I'd say Raven was more stunned at how willing Yang was to put herself at risk for the Relic's sake, even though she still suffers from PTSD. And probably asked herself "What have I been doing," realizing that Yang will fight for a seemingly hopeless war. Though if it was truly hopeless Raven wouldn't have fought for it in the first place, she would've hightailed it back to the tribe after graduation. I daresay Raven realizes how far she's fallen from her Beacon days, and is in no condition to stand on the battlefield again. Even if it meant leaving Yang behind again, she would've just been in a burden in that frame, and cleary couldn't face Qrow again either, lest she risk herself being killed. So yes, she realizes how cowardly she'd been up until that point, but she wasn't ready to move forward again, that won't come until later this season. But if she stayed by Yang's side and retuned from the Vault, she might not have gotten that chance.
