From the way Barliman is looking at her he is just as scared of her as he was of the Ordo. She wants something he dosent want to give.
It seems clear to you that the Ordo came in when something was going down between Barliman and the woman. She only wants to get away.

She is going to keep her hold for now.

If you want more info you could try to put a face to a name, but probably not a great idea to stand around in the street and get gunned down while doing so.
