Why did you do that?

"Do you seriously plan to go and pick that stranger up?" Claudy asked the very moment I returned back to the hovercraft. 

"No, not really?" I replied without even a moment of hesitation, leaning my head over my shoulder while looking at Claudy as if he was somewhat weird. 

While it was just a feeling, I could somewhat tell that only a supreme would be able to reach as close to the barrier as we did. There was a reason why our entire adventure consisted of only three people, after all. 

And what good would do to us inviting a fourth, unknown supreme on board the hovercraft when it was a vehicle that even Makary or Leon couldn't easily get their hands on? 

'Even if we only ever bothered to send her over to a new camp, not only would it invite too much danger for us to bother but also elevate Etaria's position, given how she and Madam would be the only ones capable of handling a fellow supreme.' 

I took a deep breath before sighing it away.
