They'd been told to keep their distance and not take you into their senses, but then they should have been faster to act before seeing you, or they should have sent more sense-impaired persons like the beastly third. Only he now seems hardly different from before, blind as he is and hostile to the touch.
<span class="mu-r"><span class="mu-i">"...come now, do you really not have a better way of escape than... just leaving the same way you came in? Why not stay in here awhile, and you can decide on something better? None of my people would dare to enter these rooms without my approval, you know you can threaten me to make sure of that."</span></span>

Leaning close and whispering sweet offers to the dark elves, while they try to peer out from your room to the hall outside and watch for any patrols or humans wandering the castle, you can increasingly weaken their resolve in your favor.
<span class="mu-r"><span class="mu-i">"...at least awhile longer, before you consider acting? Most of the castle occupants are still celebrating, I only retired here early because of the child, later still and less with be awake or to duty."</span></span>

Partly you do make a good point, their original assassination attempt would be best during a busy distraction like amid the evening of festivities, but a kidnapping escape would be better with less people awake around the castle or more people drunken. Partly as well however, by your charm and appeal, you've also weakened their logic and reason... whatever the importance of their mission, it couldn't hurt to spend a little more time here... with you. Ostensibly to plan and wait for a better escape, but you're so appealing to them that just being in your presence is intoxicating and justification to any illogical or impulsive actions.
