There's a lot of things, really, that could be asked. Her conversation with Kaidan that he had explained. It's like tunnels. Well like any path, there was always another road, another way around, if one was closed. She swallowed dryly, wetting her lips.

"Do you wish to stay here?"

A long breath, and should she offer? Would she care if this girl was with her?

"Perhaps, that many of us will return to many places - you could go to any of them, could you not?"

It's tentative, unsure, she can't offer her much. She has a war, a war that will last for as many more centuries as it has already been. It is a miserable future, but she cannot offer for anyone else but herself. "If you wish, you may return with me, if that is your desire. But it is a miserable fate, there. A lifetime of war is all you will have with me."
