[she lowers her head in a worried sort of way] Unfortunately, it's a bit more difficult than that. I doubt that Ben does know. You see... [she sighs; she's been trying not to think about her situation, an attempt which has actually been aided by her lack of human communication] The castle's been stolen by a djinn. Howl turned me into a cat to protect me, but when it was taken, I landed in these mountains. I think they must be somewhere in the middle of the four places where the castle was when it happened... So it's difficult to say if anyone might be looking for me. They're probably quite busy protecting the king's daughter from the djinn.
