[ Jacob has no fear of being seen- if he has to fight guards, he will do, but he'd rather she wasn't in the middle of it, just in case. After all, he doesn't know if she can fight, or how she can fight, with this "magic" as an unknown, he can't predict how it might go.
Which is another reason he doesn't want to go through the doors. Sure she can unlock doors, but then they have the patrols to deal with who are based around the doors, and he doesn't want to deal with that.
Just like she doesn't like to be on the roof. He can tell, even though she's really putting a brave face on it. But there's a stiffness to her limbs and a way her gaze goes to the edge of the roof, as if she's at risk of falling over it by standing still. But she's not spent most of her life up on rooftops. Apart from the whole witch aspect of her life, she's probably quite normal. Or maybe that is normal where she is from.
Either way, he tries not to make her worry more about the fact they're on a roof.]
That's the spirit. You're safe.
[He'll make sure of that. Once she's holding on, and he has an arm around her, he lets them slowly descend the ten or so feet down to the platform and then gestures to get against the wall by the opening in the wall meant for the barrels and bundles to pass through.]
Should be a pretty clear route through to the office, and hopefully that's where the evidence you need will be.
