"I need to go somewhere, so you two can stay here and talk about the details of the guild. I'll be back soon. Juliet, make sure Griselda doesn't do anything crazy while I'm gone. Riyala, wait for me here, okay?"
Jason asked that last part to Riyala in her own language, and Riyala immediately perked up and nodded with a smile! Riyala hadn't understood a single word that they had been saying there all along, and she had just stood to the side and been watching in a lost daze. She wasn't very comfortable being left alone with all these strangers, but she was sure that they were trustworthy since Jason had been smiling and laughing around them. She would just stay quiet and try to melt into the background until Jason comes back.
