Reading the P5V5 one, I suddenly feel much worse for Dietlinde's retainers. I had though they had simply neglected to restrain their lady duing her meeting with Magdalena, but they were in fact unable to be there.

Well... only in part. Detlinde already started spouting treason, while still walking through the upper level of the archive, before going into the place were her retainers couldn't follow.

While they are not mentioned, I'm 100 % sure she would have come with retainers and left them in the downstairs waiting area. With how natural it is for nobles of high rank to always have at least a minimal retinue with them, it would be more natural to point out when there aren't any retainers, than the other way around.
