She's still not certain if this is a good idea. She doesn't have a lot of affection for this person. Frankly, being around him is just unsettling. But she remembers what she told him, and what she said to the others.
He's still Tribe. Nothing is going to change that, and she can't abandon him because of it. The idea of losing another person to their Atma is enough to make her move through the Nexus a little quicker, scan the surrounding people a little faster.
Maybe it's out of concern or some odd form sympathy, but she can also feel the beginning of hunger pangs as she searches for him. He's not the only one having issues with keeping his Atma satisfied; she can start to feel the skin around her mark itch and burn. The shirt fabric pressed against it feels like sand being rubbed into sensitive skin.
For now, the feeling is just bearable, and enough incentive to make her keep looking.
