Rebuilding the Empire would be better than letting the Republic rise again, Altair supposed. And an Empire led by Thrawn- or led by someone chosen by Thrawn- would be better than the Galactic Empire led by Palpatine. And while Altair had loved the Sith Empire, realized how much good it could do with rational leaders, perhaps Thrawn would create something better than that too.
Only time would tell. At the very least, while Thrawn was many things, needlessly cruel was not one of them. Altair could see potential there, too, should he choose to unite the galaxy under his own banner.
"I might. It's not as though I have anywhere else to be."
Thrawn's crew would hopefully not remain terrified of him, of course, so he could stay if that was the case. He could also go back to the planet where he'd been welcomed for a time, settle down there again until Thrawn had need of him. That wasn't very productive, though.
And he was getting used to being of use to someone again.
"You'll likely have more need of me than anyone else, at any rate."
He didn't think not having anything to do with one's time was necessarily a bad thing, he just... Didn't think it was the life for him. He needed to be doing something to keep from getting restless.
