If she has to cover her face with her hands (and when did she last do that? When she was fifteen? Sixteen?) then she'll be covered in whatever muck the corpses are coated in and that would put the true dampener on the mood. "You play a dangerous game, señora, I have plenty of time here to plot my revenge for somewhere fairer such as you deserve."
Not that she minds of course but she's been so used to being the daring one when she's had so many noble wives and daughters then a queen and ladies of high birth in her life, people who need to be shown that there's nothing wrong with voicing their scandalous thoughts. It's a very welcome change of pace but still, she has a reputation to keep or perhaps to cultivate here.
"Wait, do you mean to say you've fallen off mountains and ledges? Without...Small wonder you suggested barriers when I was performing climbing lessons then. I've never seen a thing like it, the closest are some fish and crustaceans who can do a little flick then shoot off but it's nothing like you doing it. You move like the very wind itself," she can't keep that almost reverent note from her voice but it's better than any of the tricks she's ever seen in her life and faster than any thief could ever claim.
"I met someone who was struck by lightning once and one learns a healthy respect for it when there are storms at sea and you just watch it rolling in. The control it must take to master something like that, to be the eye of it - it must take some sort of calm, yes? I mean any fight should have that so you don't make a mistake but lightning is wild and primal." Plus she's still learning how magic works here, unsure if it'll be like any sort of training or different because it comes from deeper within a person.
