Greta's beginning to really miss the Woods. At least in the Woods, dead people don't come back to life just to murder the living out of revenge. How has the Balladeer survived any of this?
"So, he probably wants to kill you," she summarizes, "and he might kill me just for being with you. And he's already dead, himself, but he's also alive enough to murder people." Despite the apparently real danger they're in, she finds herself biting back a mirthless smile. "Your world," she informs him, "is completely mad."
Well, hopefully this Booth fellow will just leave them alone. If not… she's not sure what they'll do, but she's not letting anyone murder her friend. (How she'd stop it is another matter entirely, but she will cross that bridge if she comes to it.)
As they finally top the stairs and pass between the towering white columns that support the structure, she gives the Balladeer's arm a bracing little pat. "We'll be fine," she says firmly.
