Vaille stood there as all eyes remained fixed on her. She is the one to call the final shot, no matter what she tells them to do, they will do it.
As Ray said, people could actually die because of the plan he made just then but it really is the best way to ensure the fruition of their plan. If they could throw the people off guard and create as much chaos as possible, that will be the best outcome.
Aurora is going to lead the 'attack' that way, even if she is caught, they won't know who she is as compared to the others there who have met with the people in some way or the other.
It just needs to look like a proper attack, where the people are really injured, well, as much as Jasmine's magic will make it look like.
Then they will 'disappear' from view from being 'overpowered'. That's the jist of the plan they have.
But where do they attack first? That's the biggest question at the moment.
