It's not unusual that actors play roles of characters that are supposed to be about 10 years younger.
And these days a woman in her mid-thirties easily looks younger than a woman in her mid-twenties did in the past, especially if 'past' means the early middle-ages (or its fantasy equivalent).
Finally, according to the wikipedia entry on 'The Black Company', the story covers a time-span of about 40 years. So, it makes sense to use actors that can believably represent the characters at both young ages and old ages.
