"That's the reason I'm here instead of Heat or Cielo." For a moment, there's something akin to amusement flickering in her eyes as she turns her head slightly to look at him. There were other reasons for Heat to be up in the cliffs, and she was more likely to actively challenge terms if they didn't work to their favor than Cielo. That and people in general seemed to open up to her at least somewhat better than their own. She was less...intimidating than Gale was to talk to. She felt and understood what they might be feeling as well.
"We'll manage. No matter how different it is, we'll manage." They didn't have any choice but to manage and learn on the fly. So that's what they would do and they would do it well. Not without mistakes, mistakes were part of living, but they would learn from them and keep moving forward and sustain their tribe. Because ultimately new just meant different even if they haven't ascended as they were told they would.
