Frankly, Zafire is wishing she wore something more practical today, and without jewelry (she might not know as much about the outside world as she'd like, but she does know ostentatious gemstone earrings are a beacon for thieves), but there was no way of foreseeing this.
"A spiritual realm would be the homeland of such a creature. A foul one, I'm certain." She isn't as experienced as many other witches, and certainly not with spiritualism and demonology, but she knows that much about them. "Why is it called the Fade, do you know?"
She is not surprised, exactly, when he pushes the errant branches from her path, because she is used to certain well-bred manners, but she is grateful. The idea of having to exert herself any more than strictly necessary is a daunting one. Zafire's 'thank you' is a quiet one, amid her careful attempt to move through the branches without tearing her dress.
That's not vanity. The heavy silk and Jamie's cloak are pretty much all she's got to keep her warm right now. Any more exposed skin in this environment seems like an invitation for frostbite.
