[there are moments where she can be a bit shortsighted-- so focused on the injustice of this place and wanting to right the wrongs here that...she doesn't think of the more short-term consequences of refusing to abide by the rules.
it's in her nature to go against the unjust. to not play alongside it for the long game. but...

I had wondered who my mysterious dance patner had been that night.
And...you are right, Asra, to seek out a way to help. Those especially in the Down. I am so sorry to hear that your friend had been taken, and I can assure you that I will do all in my power to help change this place.

[she feels bad, her heart going out to Asra.]
