[ she supposes that's true, though the suli are nomadic people, and the land is their home. ravka may currently be run by a bunch of incompetent morons (as far as inej remembers), but the ravkans have generally protected their own.
no one seemed to notice when inej was kidnapped, after all. the ravkan government hardly demanded anything of the kerch and their illegal slave trade, when suli girls go missing.

it's a silly thought. the odds are astronomical. but there's definitely a slight pause before she says: ]
There is no real rush.
[ it's an agreement, but not an insistent one.
after all, finding little cakes would hardly erase her debt. ]
