Do nothing to attract suspicion. Perhaps subtly suggest an alternative. Subtly being the operative word here. But consider that Aristophanes' champion attacked her Prime in view of everyone on the first day. It proves nothing, of course. But still.

[frowning, and considering her words with a nod...]

We've already made a very large play, that everyone may or may not learn. Should they come after us for that it would make sense to claim we were already high risk - why increase it?

No one has any cause to suspect us, and if they do, we've a decent argument against their accusations. I can't imagine that she told anyone where she was going, since no Champion would allow their Prime to waltz around at night alone.

[just. sighs, and combs her fingers through her hair.]

One does wonder at that Champion. Perhaps she will be Prime herself.

[flashes a grin. she's trying to keep it together but you know, can't help it.]

That would be interesting, to be sure.

[ha ha! ha! deep breath]

Then that's our story.

What happened?

She was too close to our territory and I told her off. She was belligerent, so it turned into a fight.

[AND THEN I BANGED HER BEFORE MURDERING HER BUT YOU KNOW, LET'S NOT TELL ANYONE THAT?]

A Prime off alone without anyone else... what a fool.

[laaaaaughs, low and amused]

Well, you're not wrong.
