Asking him will probably not help, either. However, perhaps someone else should try communicating with them. I wonder if there were some way to send them a signal or something... [Electronically or even morse code or something!]

I'm not so sure of that. When Miss Q arrived, she was rather shocked to see anyone living in Discedo. I also believe that the Hollisland soldiers weren't aware of us either until they flew over the first time, but that's my own speculation.

Still, those people may not know Discedo was wiped out at one time if they have been isolated for a long while. They also could pose a threat to those staying near by, too.
