Scout didn't need help getting back to her inn but she decided to let Tavish' son escort her anyways because she was very aware of her effect on him.  She was blind but not completely oblivious.  Scout heard the kids running around, whispering about her being a witch.  It was honestly pretty funny.

"Woah, did you see that?"  She pointed out in front of them then quickly tried to feign innocence.  "I mean... I'm blind, so obviously I didn't see a Spirit.  Even if I could see demon auras, which I probably can't, I'm sure it's fine.  Maybe it doesn't snatch up children and drag them to hell.  I'm sure you'll be okay Oswin.  I hear they only attack ones that hang out with witches."

She continued walking along the path, trying hard to hide her grin.
