"It's not my hobby, really. But it isn't my job either. Let's say a while I ago I got into something...and now I am pretty curious.", he sips from his beer and takes a deep breath. "I'm not even sure what exactly I am doing here, nor why. But I think this 'thing' is too important to just ignore it. When the captain of the Athena was right, millions of humans died there. And I guess that was not the last genocide. What I am doing here, is gaining knowledge, information, everything that helps me to understand this."
He pauses for a moment, looking around. "Well...the world seems to be at war. Humans killing each other for money and power, or just because the follow blind an ideology. And then we have the nomads, surely very mysterious lifeforms...
What I mean is, if humanity continues like this, we're all going to hell. Not that I believe in a metaphysical place like hell, but our world here will turn into hell. And the problem can't be solved if you do not understand it entirely."
He looks at the other people in the bar, then turns back to Aleesha: "People do not question their intentions enough, history just happens again and again and again."
"If we do not start changing, we're all doomed. People do not want to understand, and that will be our nemesis. If the humans keep fighting each other like they do at the moment, who could stop a possible nomad invasion?
And, also, this is not about good versus evil. We humans are not necessarily good, and I don't think the nomads are just evil creatures who want to destroy everything. This would be too easy. I want to understand what is really happening."
