The accusation barely stings. Wilhelm isn't wrong. He is tired of seeing mistakes repeated over and over. He's tired of this unending existence. He moves forward because he has to, he doesn't have a choice, and because his faith remains that the Singularity is important, it must be protected at all costs. None of these exiles understand that, and at times it feels like few of their ilk bother to understand too.

He doesn't want to follow Wilhelm. He's no longer a boy that needs looking after. It takes him a moment to decide to go after him, parting the grain of space and arriving at a vantage point behind Wilhelm, intending only to watch.
