[ Another pause, because he's considering that and in a call back to other things they've spoken of, how being here doesn't mean that the past and its struggles have to repeat themselves outside of that. No, he has more to add to that admittedly politician's answer. ]
I wouldn't ask someone to risk themselves to prevent some of the information we might learn making it back to anywhere, but if there's a way around that, it wouldn't be the worst idea to keep an eye on finding what it might be in mind throughout all of this.

If there's no way to prevent bringing back what we're supposed to to Thorne and the Free Cities, then maybe there's a way to make sure the connections we make with the Nether aren't based on this alone.

I wouldn't expect others to risk themselves. I hope not to have to put myself in that position. But if necessary, I will.
[ He's very much used to acting alone. All of this conspiring is something he never did before coming here. ]
