Only briefly. I'm not certain I want to set up there just yet. The locals seem friendly enough, but we can't forget that someone — or something — is responsible for bringing us here. We shouldn't extend too much trust to any natives.

[Or anyone at all for that matter. What this is really boiling down to is Ryan being an antisocial asshole who wants either a nice secluded place of his own or somewhere close to where he's sleeping.]
