[he doesn't say it with any malice, just as a statement of fact; Qri's priorities aren't their priorities, and while he doesn't begrudge her that, he doesn't put any stock in her making sure that all of their worlds remain safe while they're gone.]
But I do know that we have some very determined friends back home. I don't know what it was like while I was asleep or how much of the land was purified, but I do know that Lailah and the others can prevent it from going back to the way it was before. If Maotelous is feeling up to it then I'm sure he could make a pact with a Shepherd too.
It's mostly that...I didn't want to put that burden on anyone else. I wanted everyone to be able to live peacefully, after everything. So it sort of feels like I left the job half-finished.
