Well, I mean— we don't really have the chance to talk to people outside of the citadel, you know? We weren't called back here to do that sort of thing. [More or less... They were called to fight a war, but he understands it's different than the notion Lili's trying to get across. BUT, equally important--]
And even if we could go into the cities or whatever, we're still swords. Other people wield us and tell us where to go and what to do. It'd be weird for one of us to guide humans instead.
