He doesn't know if he's right. He doesn't know if Jingyi is right. And neither of them can know for sure what's going on anyway, because if there's anything the train ever refuses to do, it's to provide them with an instruction manual when it comes to anything at all.
It makes this feel so hopeless.
"I don't want to argue about this. We don't know for sure anyway," Inigo just says, suddenly his voice sounding much more empty as he's stepping away from Jingyi, like he is now trying to escape the tail after all. He takes a step or two in the direction of the train, and then just stares at it.
"I don't want to go to Ylisse either." He didn't want to be there in the first place, and fled away from everything he knew there the moment he was able to do so - so of course he has zero reason to go back there now. "I'll just stick around here on the platform and see if there's anything I can do."
Even if the possibilities when it comes to stuff that might work are rapidly shrinking here. But maybe it's just about endurance. Maybe the train will notice something if he just keeps doing it for long enough. It's the only thing he can do here.
