The Hero's Path

She panicked when, for the first time, instead of the usual horse, there was a red circle at the exit from the dungeon. She ran around for a day, looking for the exit (by the way, is this a bug or a feature?).

This is a bug in the game. The entrance/exit from the dungeon is made using scripts, and the game doesn't understand this.

How do I get rid of Ash?

Again, what stage are you on? Have you found the demon? Have you collected many obelisks? When the map of obelisks is about 70-80% complete, meaning you already clearly know the location, you need to return to the demon, and he will then explain what to do next.

P.S. Congratulations on registering.
