"Is it? I mean... do we really know that?" This is a genuine question, not just an argument. This is something she's thought about, especially recently.
“If the fears are really from this world you'd think the locals would have a bigger connection.” And if that's not true that's interesting, too. They need to figure out why.
“The people who show up here—the ones with powers it's easy enough to tell if we're feeding ‘em. But I dunno if the offworlders who don't have powers are already chosen by one. And at that point… there's no way to know everyone else hasn't been, too.”
It's not that she thinks there's no choice involved, but if the entities do pick people who align closer to one than another, and then feed off things they’d do anyway, build off it… she's not sure where she's headed with this, exactly, except that it feels like they take advantage of people. Which she supposed isn't news.
