Of course, Dist.

[That's certainly pleased him. Dist has a lot to consider and sort through; in some ways, it's far more than Iago ever had to deal with. Leaving Nohr behind is relatively easy - Garon is going to die regardless of whether he returns or not and Nohr has nothing else to offer him. Considering what he's learned and seen here, he couldn't be happy going back to a world without all of these advancements. The only advantage Nohr has is familiarity, nothing more.

Dist has plenty of other things to deal with, and it isn't going to be an easy decision for him. The goals he has can't be replicated anywhere else. It's giving up on those dreams more than Iago has, so it's certainly going to be more difficult. But if anyone is going to be able to accomplish it, it's Dist.]


Let's do what we can to focus on survival here, then. Once we make it through this, we can sort the rest out. We've worked out so much already and we have some ideas for how to proceed; I'm certain we'll be just fine.

[There's always the possibility that they won't be, that things won't go according to plan and he's terrible at reacting to sudden changes. But he feels more confident in saying this to Dist given what they've worked out.

Besides, it would just be disappointing if they died now.]
