I walk through here all the time and there's usually heaps of people just lounging around or going some place else."
As for the other part, she was going to answer to what she understood of his trick question. "It isn't safe either." Did that answer the question? She gave it a bit more thought. "If I was running from something I wouldn't choose here, I'd go deeper into the castle..." Hey, would you look at that, she did answered the question...sort of...that's what he was asking right?
Yeah, maybe she'd just say what she was thinking and hope he picked an answer from it. "The way I see it, we're looking for someplace that most people probably wouldn't even know about, you know because he said it's not a very populated area. Usually areas like that are out of the way and don't run across people's minds often...where do we know fits that that description?" Then again, if it hardly crossed people's minds, how would they think of it? Hmmmm...
"No, exactly. This place is all wrong. But if you think that people would be running FROM the Great Hall to a place deeper into the castle, then we need to find a nearly deserted place near the top of the castle." Mo scrubbed at his hair briefly before nodding. "I have some thoughts. You can follow me if you want."
He raced up the Grand Staircase into the castle.
