Interesting question. Why do you ask?

Is it bad to ask others out of mere curiosity?

No, but curiosity is always spawned by an intent to know for personal benefit.

Do you think I could really cause harm by asking such a question?

I didn't say that.

Would you then mind me telling why do you seem to be curious about my question?

Intrigued.

It's an interesting question to ask and I wondered what you hoped to attain by asking such a thing.

And so you would use the information you would gather to your own personal advantage?

Naturally. And by obtaining this information about me, you learn something to be used for your own personal advantage.

Thus the common phrase, "You learn something new every day."

...You are quite an interesting person, Near. I'll give you my answer.

This question might actually determine the fate of Adstringendum by its inhabitants.

As are you.

Is that so? How interesting. Why?

Thank you very much~

Adstringendum could be considered as a civilization already. However, it is quite natural for people to stay in with those who came from the same worlds. What would happen if someone who didn't have anyone who came from their world do?

I see your point. Still, it's a heavily misguided assumption. There are many here who have made friends with those from other worlds. Some even have romantic relationships with those from other worlds. The unity does not always come only with those we knew from home, and to stay alone is quite the same thing. Not everyone with others from their world around would like to be with them.
