"Because a warrior does not abandon those in his charge," T'sunami replies,
ignoring the insult to concentrate on the heart of the matter. "I do not
order; I speak plainly the best course of action. Courtesy is a luxury that
the ruins will not afford. There are namegivers here who have displayed a
wisdom necessary for their survival in this Passion-forsaken place, but
deserve a warrior's protection from the creatures who dwell therein. Others
display a lack of forethought that endangers everyone else, and demand a
warrior's protection from themselves. I don't ask you to understand, but I
will not let your actions put everyone here, including Astran, at risk."
