You overestimate people, Sabriel. The sheep of this world-- of any world-- are happy to be lied to, as long as they have food and a warm bed to sleep in at night. If asked to choose between an uncomfortable truth and keeping the wool pulled over their eyes, they'll choose the second every time.

It's no wonder the government wants us here. We're a convenient scapegoat. The masses will welcome us, but in the back of everyone's minds, we're a potential threat at any moment.

RISE was always only ever a stopgap to that.

And a potential shield- if some imPorts are a threat, we can argue that other imPorts are the best way to counter them.

Or at the very least, gain information on what our generous hosts are up to.
