Isla
Following his gaze off into the undergrowth, Isla winces as she realises he's probably absolutely right. "Of course that's the case," she says with a self-deprecating laugh, shifting her pack on her shoulder. "Do you mind if I walk with you for a little while, since I'm going back the way I came? Hopefully I can find some landmarks from there."
As for King's End and the skyships, again, he's correct, but Isla's awkward smile hopefully answers the question without needing to extrapolate too much. "I was on my way out of King's End, to be honest. I left in a bit of a hurry." Which is to say that the sooner she got earth under her feet and left tracks in the dust, the better.
"Where are you headed, since you came from the Grounds?"

I'll take a bruise, I know you're worth it
When you hit me, hit me hard
When you hit me, hit me hard
