I'm starting to wonder if it isn't because the Natha themselves live here. If that somehow keeps it safe.

[She has worse thoughts. More than once has she considered, in light of both the immense power available to their alleged rescuers and the sight of that power in active failure, whether there isn't some sort of cyclical perpetuation to the machinations of the Natha. Whether they approach a world and bring the Storm with them, intentionally or no, and save who they can in the process.

But for what? What purpose do they serve in that case? Could it really all be to save one world?

Something old and familiar seizes Krile's heart a bit and she shakes her head hard.]

I'd suggest not asking any of these things where we might be improperly overheard...but you aren't alone in wanting answers.
