[ The fact is, Emerald's already in trouble. She's already got loyalties elsewhere and she's been told in no uncertain terms that there are people who wouldn't just let her disappear for their safety.

We can tell them about the grimm we helped Cinder use on Amber, or the Seers. Maybe we don't know her weaknesses or what she's fully capable of, but a lot of what know has value.
