[For those listening keenly a note of obvious exhaustion may be heard behind Elidibus's words. Nevertheless he keeps a calm, clear tone throughout his communication.]
In the wake of the Voidtrecker Express's announcement, I would like to speak in support of its request and efforts.
Despite our personal feelings about our plight, it has sought to try and send those of us who wished to return home back to our worlds. Given the uncertain nature of our tethers and the amount of aether such an endeavor must have cost it, it heeded our will.
It should not be the target of blame for not succeeding, nor that others may have been accidentally caught in its efforts despite their desire to remain.
The Voidtrecker Express did not choose to send a select few to see if it were possible but instead attempted to aid all of us fairly. And we accepted that offer despite the possible consequences. There could have been much more dire outcome for such a monumental effort, including our tethers being strained to the point of breaking, leaving us at the mercy of voidspace or the destruction of the train itself and with it, the loss of those who chose to stay.
Pray speak if you feel differently about whether the Voidtrecker Express is to blame. But I also ask you try not to dwell overlong on fault. Rest and recover and take what you can from this experience. This is not the end of our journey.

You said you speak from observable fact. I challenged that there were very few observable facts available, listing several unknowns. It was not an accusation of you speaking that which I listed.
You needn't apologize to me. It's merely, this invalidates people's experiences. A thought to keep in mind for next time. ( Or don't, whatever, he just had to say something. He saw first hand how this affected others. )
As for the train itself, whether we choose to pursue understanding the deeper purpose of their offering should there have been any and the technical aspects of what went wrong, accountability is required.
no subject
Then to clarify you added subjects not discussed as examples of possible intentions?
[After another brief pause as though considering.]
I counter the observable facts I spoke when advocating against blame are still facts that are present. Because they are few compared to a possible many doesn't invalidate that I spoke known facts and separated them from theory.
I spoke an apology not only to you but others who may be listening. Also I'm no less impacted by the experience than others. However I will keep your sentiment in mind for future discussions.
As I said to Lan Jingyi, how we communicate our troubles is as important as what they are. Blame is oft used to cloud reality and avoid accountability.
no subject
( But he'll depart from this before it had the potential to be circular. ) True, and in that accountability comes the accountability owed to us by the train.
I feel weird not putting a closing response here! Sorry for the delay.
[Seems he is not inclined to try and further go round in circles either.]
