Stella did not reply for a solid minute. But Amane did not feel as if Stella was lost for a response.
Stella was currently weighing her words to see which one would be most appropriate for this situation. And once she had her answer, she decided to answer Amane as well.
"The government does not mind whatever the out-come would be for their project. They still intent to go through with this program with or without your help. Things would just become easier for everyone if you help, but we won't force you to."
Somehow, Amane was not surprised at the answer she got from Stelle. Those in power had never cared about whom they were harming if they continued to profit.
In this case, as well, the disruption of such a rich eco-system would cause a huge loss to the beast population.
Some of these beasts might even try to come back to their previous settlement, only to find humans there and get enraged. It would lead to a lot of tragedy and loss of lives.
