Of course Vrenille had no earthly idea what this whole 'Apparation' thing was, and of course he could have just asked. But he was already under the distinct impression that he was going to have to ask quite a lot of questions about things that a person in this...land? realm? region? whatever was supposed to know. In practice, there was probably a quota, and if he went over the threshold he fully expected some very uncomfortable questions to be coming his way.
That meant he needed to reserve his queries for situations of absolute necessity, not just mild confusion or curiosity. In this case, he didn't need to know what Apparation was to understand that he was meant to take Remus's arm. The body language translated perfectly well, and anyway it was the sort of gesture that he was perfectly comfortable with. He even returned that wry smile.
Given that Remus had told him they were pretty much miles from everywhere, when he slid his hand through the crook of the young man's elbow and let his admittedly chilled fingers come to rest on Remus's forearm, he expected some method of magical travel. He just didn't have any clear idea of just what it would be. He simply had to trust and hope.
