Look she would feel better if you had a staff since she now has something much more like what she's used to using. Not that she has doubts about the will or the ability Korrin might have but they're already at a disadvantage here.
Any other time, there might be a comment about the Fallow Mire. Remember the Fallow Mire? Remember the time Araceli voluntarily went back there to help find another wisp or something to do with a wisp with you Korrin? She'll save it for later when they've at least managed to catch a breather and dump the nobles on someone else actually qualified to babysit unbearable people. What she can see by the light of the wisp has her nodding until she remembers Korrin can't see her.
"Shabby decor, few belongings, lower ceilings, everyone expected to be packed tighter together?" Her voice disappears around a doorway to confirm the last bit before she swings herself back around. "Servants. A way in and out so they can be invisible." It takes supreme effort not to grind her teeth since this isn't the matter at hand, this isn't what she needs to care about right now but isn't this the fight at home? Something better for the people who have so little, who would be dying just the same way if creatures such as this invaded Castileos at a ball? But it turns to ice in her belly because there are too many people she loves there who might lie just as dead.
She prods a straggler along with a sharp whisper. At least the scale of the place is on their side, it shouldn't take much longer now for them to find the other end and emerge to whatever awaits them. Recalling the homes of most nobles back home, she raises her voice as much as she dares. "Head for the kitchens or larder, the exit should be that way."
