[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.

It sounds that way though...and I feel like if we hadn't done anything it would've made it worse- we couldn't leave the station for a reason, so if the tether had finally given away...
[There is a sigh of relief, that it didn't happen.] I'm just glad we were able to get everyone back...ah-
...though that's a good point...I don't know if there's a way to really confirm that beyond the train being able to leave...
no subject
[Yes, the unspoken 'things that could have turned out much worse'. Tethers breaking, passengers stranded in the void or worse. The destruction of the train and those who remained with it and were still attached, given how their lives were tied to it.]
I will see if anyone has done a full headcount. I believe a woman named Lioriley was maintaining a list. She may be the one to reach out to. Though the Voidtrecker Express seemed to confirm we were able to reclaim our allies and depart, it would be reassuring to have at least one other confirmation.
no subject
And I'll try to do that, yeah. ...I think part of the problem is going to be tracking who left...not everyone who left the train did it willingly.
no subject
You may use it or hand it to others. It may also be best to create a chart to note who left voluntary and who did not. As well as what other worlds than one's own that were travelled to.
[ Surely this can also be attended to by Elidibus.... well, he probably isn't anyone's friend right now what with the network conversation that started this discussion. Maybe he is handing it over with good reason.]
no subject
...Right now I don't think I should be moving around too much, [he admits weakly.] ...But if no one's started it after I've rested enough I'll definitely come to you..!
