We haven't tried to be involved to this level before. There were those who took sides on Giva for their own reasons, and I won't suggest everyone needs to clamp down on their emotions and lock up their sympathies. But we still had people on either side focused on finding the orb, too.

Never before has most of the group apparently decided they wanted to work with one political faction to topple another when doing so wasn't related to getting the orb, and we certainly never stuck around for weeks afterward before. I don't think we even considered that a realistic option. I had asked Viveca about it before and she said once we had the orb, we would have to be immediately retrieved.
