Dilan knew that it would take time for everyone to trust each other.
That was to be expected, and it would be weird if the Survivors were to naively trust every single new member who joined their small community.
However, it was still difficult for many to digest that their number increased from a meager 60 to more than 600 Survivors!
The difference was quite a lot, to put it simply, and Dilan was sure that conflicts would erupt quite soon.
But even then, he was happy to have the shepherd's gang by his side.
Earlier, he had not liked them, but that was mostly owing to Xias and his people. They had been outcasts in the gang, according to everyone Dilan had spoken to.
This little piece of information made a big difference to him as it allowed Dilan to have a fresh and unbiased opinion about everyone, without having a prejudice against the shepherds gang!
