[ To have come here at all, there had to be shift coordinates even if they weren't the ones she was originally aiming for. And she's heard of gates being locked, but never coordinates being erased entirely, even in Sectors ravaged by kaiju.
It's peaceful here, after all – almost like she remembers it being before she'd ever even heard of the Sentinel Project. Surely there'd be no need to erase the coordinates after she left.
She shouldn't really be thinking of coming back already when they haven't even been able to make sure she can leave. But the closer they come to that goal, the stranger it feels to imagine simply going and never looking back. ]
But... that's all just theory, of course. It's something to worry about later. For now... focusing what I can do here and now for the people here should be my priority.
