Well, now she definitely likes him. It's a good person, god or alien or human, that will take the respect she just offered without pushing boundaries or acting superior.
"It's a strange thing to get used to," she agrees with him readily. "Different universes. It's been a godsend for my people, though--uh, pun not intended."
Lol, godsend. She shakes her head sheepishly. "Trade is interesting here. There are items some worlds lack that others take for granted. I've been able to buy food and crops and fabric for my settlement, books for a new school, painkillers and antibiotics, all kinds of things that are precious or nonexistent where I come from, mostly just by trading our artisans' leather and metalwork, and a little labor here and there."
She's treading cautiously, still, unwilling to introduce anything too technologically startling to her people and her world, but there's no doubt the Citadel would not be so capable of feeding and sheltering its people without the resources the Nexus provides. "If there's anything your people need, I'd suggest stocking up while you're here."
