A second ago she was at work in the temple of Erastil in Sothis, which was actually going pretty okay, all things considered. Now she's in a grassy field with a couple fruit trees and a table and chairs and some notebooks and pens.
This is unexpected and requires a ton of power and is therefore sort of inherently terrifying. And she's alone, and defenseless, and she doesn't know where Verita is.
She mills around in steadily increasing amounts of distress until Hagan appears, just as suddenly.
"We have all been kidnapped by unknown parties with unknown aims. That over there is a fairy, don't tell him your name or he has some kinda magical debt bondage powers over you. That's his slave, going by Cecelia. She and Imrainai and I are just normal humans."
"Sure, correction, don't lie at all. Or break promises, or swear falsely or accuse someone falsely or attack people you're indebted to."
"Just to be clear, if you try to add any terrified girls who show up here to your magic debt slavery deal, I will kill you, and if that means I die of some magic fairy retaliation I am fine with that, I like where I'm headed."
"If you try to kill me you will fall over with somewhere between an enormous headache and your skin peeling off and you'll belong to me."
She heads over to the new girl, who honestly looks like she's about to faint. She takes one of her hands.
"Hey. Shh. Breathe."
Nodnodnod. She breathes. "I'm not - are any of you Wolfram & Hart Employees - "
"I don't know what that is. Today was my first day working at the local Temple of Erastil, I don't know if that means anything to you?"
"Wolfram & Hart Los Angeles branch. It's - it's an interdimensional law firm. Uh, I guess - Earth, if you've heard of Earth."
