(The fairness in Altaïr's answer is appreciated, and Cid tilts his head as he listens. If he had been offered to come here would he have? The outlaw isn't sure, probably not. Back home there was just too much to do, too many people relying on him and the others to get things sorted. Leaving them would not be optional, but he can also see why some would be tempted.)

Certainly seems to be that, even I've seen things I know I want to get my hands on. Considerin' just how many worlds people are from there will be a lot to learn.

The choice being made for us really is a kick in the arse. At least the welcoming committee is here to pick everyone up.
