Given Rokuro hasn't asked for clarification, Tech hasn't thought about what might need to be given further explanation, but then again, it might not be a conversation for right this moment. It's difficult to put himself exactly in Rokuro's situation, but after seeing how the man had reacted to a simple tablet, not too difficult to imagine how Rokuro would respond to other things he takes for granted simply because it's a normal or expected convenience where he's from.
"...from what it sounds like, the Sylphid are simply looking for hosts to further their population. I do not know if they have certain parameters that they look into when using this technology of theirs to pull in people from other worlds, but theoretically it can likely bring in anyone." He pulls out his tablet again to try and get a general idea of where about they've gotten and how much closer to the road they are.
"I would not say you are less useful. There is no set baseline that I'm aware of. We can't help for being here in this foreign world, but we can at least be grateful that we've been saved the trouble of finding out how the Sylphid carry out their plans to fulfillment and can now act to try and do something about it in turn." He reorients himself, tucking the tablet away once again as he gestures in the direction they're to continue.
"There's a lot for me to learn here, even for all my familiarity. Even knowing how I would proceed with things, such tactics will not necessarily work the same way. Then there are people whom I have no idea how skilled they are or what they are capable of, if they can be trusted. Yet to some degree I must be able to trust them and their ability to do their part. I'm not sure it's any easier than finding our way to operate independently from the Republic we once served." He sighs. It has been a challenge enough as a group, and now here he is on his own. If he lets himself take too broad a view of the situation, he knows he'll feel just as overwhelmed.
"You're here on this mission. That's something you decided," he continues after a moment. "You could choose not to, but you still want to do something, despite cultural hindrances, but whatever reasons lie behind it, it does not change the fact that you choose to act."
