The group regathers after a tense encounter with Elias. Tensions run high as trust within the group begins to waver.
RYDER
[Pacing around the campfire] "Elias can't be trusted. He knows too much about the Exosphere. And us. He’s playing both sides."
LiLa
[Sitting quietly, her gaze fixed on the flickering flames] Maybe. Or maybe he’s the only one who understands what’s happening. We need answers, Ryder. What if he’s our best chance to stop all this?"
RYDER
[Turning sharply toward her] And risk getting stabbed in the back? No. We can’t afford to take that chance.
LiLa
[Standing, her voice calm but firm] We can’t afford to be blind, either. Elias mentioned something about the Convergence. It could be the key to understanding what these echoes want.
