[So here's the charming face of Ygritte. Except she doesn't look too pleased.]

So are you lot that thick to go off then? T'do their bidding and fight their wars? What's dead is dead, only we can't die. They've got us, and if you save a man, he'll just expect you t'save him again.

I feel for that world and them lands, I really do. [More than most, probably.]

But what are we t'them? Do they care what happens t'us? This United group, aye, they may be the ones t'exile'em and t'keep them down. But what are we but-- collateral damage? [See, look. This place is wearing off on her. She's actually learning.]

What cause have I? What cause do any of you have?

If they win in this world, the next thing the United Earth will do is go after ours. What happened to the other world...it'll happen again and again, if they get their way.

[Emil's got his own doubts about the way things are done in Exsilium, but there's one thing he's certain of.]

What I saw in that other world made me realize something. No place deserves to have that happen to it, no matter what the people in it do.

In a nutshell, it's because I don't have anything better to do.

[This one is an elf, dressed in soft grays, some comfortable clothing he has bought in this 'fine' city. It seems he's been playing messages on his tablet while he goes through his weapons: he is polishing a small throwing dagger.] Oh, I do not know. I find a little violence takes the edge off of all of the dull shopping and moving into new houses and rain of this place.

[This reply comes in the afternoon, maybe an hour or so after the explosion at the Hold. Jesse's still in the hospital for observation but at least he has his tablet back.]

It's clear now, ain't it? They're coming for us whether we like it or not.

I suppose I do what I can because maybe it'll help everyone else get back where they belong.

But it isn't just their war now, it is ours too! Plus, this is home now! At least it is for some of us.

What cause? We can't just stand here and let them do those things.

[Sango comes across this post after the battle.]

Does it matter if they care what happens to us? We're here, and the only thing we accomplish by sulking over it is allowing entire worlds to be destroyed without a fight.

If it was your world, and your home, wouldn't you want someone to help you protect it?

Well...

I guess then. I guess there's also the fact that I don't really know how to be anything but a soldier. I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I wasn't.

[ That's probably more truthful than the first answer. ]

Maybe not! But you asked what cause some of us have, and that's it.

I'll gladly be used, if it saves a whole planet from extinction! You just said that you felt for that world!

The Initiative warned us before. Just nobody believed 'em.

Yeah. They are. But...if we don't even try to change anything, nothing will change. That's what I've learned, anyway.
