[Yona feels the worry emanating from him before it makes itself visible on his face.]
Mmn. [She shakes her head once back and forth, the smile still evident in her expression.] You did nothing wrong. It was out of our control. [It still is. This helplessness, to be at the mercy of some unknown entity or entities, it plagues her every breath, awake or asleep.
Yona is silent for awhile, his words provoking thoughts of her own. She's allowed these thoughts to consume her for many months, wondering even if it was possible that her mother might be brought to Haven or, now, Inugami. People from her past or people from her country's past, whether they have crossed her path at some point in her life, she finds it peculiar that in all her time being held captive, she or her close companions have known every single one of the people from their world that has appeared.
Yona spent a lot of time in Haven making sure there was no one else, even the people she didn't recognize, from Kouka, Kai empire, Sei, or Xing. She didn't find one person. And yet, here they are, her friends and their friends. Why?
Even with the ability to write, communicating in Inugami is a little more difficult than she anticipated. In Haven, there were moving picture and sound broadcasts frequently, and it was a convenient way to get to know other people. The bulletin board serves the same purpose, but isn't as efficient.]
It's odd that the only people here from our world are connected in some way to us, and we to them. In Haven and, as far as I know, Inugami I haven't come across a single stranger from Kouka, the neighboring countries, or empire.

[To his suggestion, Yona nods again.]
Good idea, Kija.
