---As an impulsive entity, perhaps it was only natural that Shadow Catherine (and that was what she was, a shadow) would jump from one task to another without thinking too much about in the long term. If something seems like a good idea right now, she'll just do it, if someone is running away, it makes sense to chase them...
Something like that?
It's not an outlook that's considering the best route for other people, it's possible she simply disregarded the other two entirely the moment she warped the both of you away from the battle, in which case...
Letting her take the reins too much could be dangerous, she doesn't have an Ego to question her, so...
You voice your doubts.
In response to those doubts...
"..."
Catherine stops.
Her -eerily quiet- footsteps cease, then, with a slow turn of her head...
"I can't see it."
She simply says this, as if it explained absolutely everything about the situation...
"I think they only exist for their target."
She turns around to face you fully, voice...
Calm... No...
Emotionless?
For the shadow that seemed to revel in her emotions, it's certainly an odd occurrence...
"If that's true, you likely can't perceive it anymore either, it's shifted from you to him. No point in trying to help them."
So she says, but...
You can definitely... Hear the voice of the maid from before coming from behind the wall...
It's garbled, coated in static, a painful sound like a voice struggling to emerge from beneath the ruinous sounds of a broken television set, but...
It's there.
"Better to chase someone we can do something about, no?"
