"You didn't create the problem, though." At this point, she's not sure who deserves the blame, whether it be the men who attacked, or whoever was in charge of the decision to invade and hold New Orleans for the North, or maybe the U.S. government itself. She does want to blame someone, but it's certainly not the man lying down in her drawing room with bandages around his waist.

"I hope you'll be comfortable down here. I'll get you a blanket for tonight and if you need more pillows, I'd be happy to fetch more. Or, well, do anything you need me to do, really. If you'd like to send word home, I could write out what you say and mail it for you. Or I'm sure I can find you a set of playing cards around here if you'd like to play. Anything."

Because she's just so desperate to both be a good host and to prove herself capable of handling a very stressful situation.
