Altair glanced back at the pair, though didn't comment. Something must have happened, but he wouldn't pry. It was hardly his place, after all. He did hope the Jedi would find her answers though, once she got to where she needed to be. It would put them at odds in the future, if she went searching for whatever Jedi were left, but for now, he had no quarrel with her and would safely deliver her and the Chiss to Thrawn so he could sort them out.
The trek back to the ship was a relatively quiet one. A few animals could be spotted here and there, and insects flitted about. Altair kept up his pace, only slowing every now and then to make sure that his temporary companions could recover a little. It wasn't so far that they needed to take any real breaks though.
The ship wasn't exactly a large one, but it would comfortably fit all three of them. He led them aboard and then moved to set his artifacts safely aside, before going to get them both something to drink and more ration bars, "Take it easy for now. We shouldn't need to travel too far, but take the time to eat and drink, and sleep a little more if you feel the need."
Altair hoped Thrawn wouldn't be too upset with him, when he arrived with two more people in tow who needed help. But he thought that he'd understand that Altair couldn't just leave two people to die when he had the means to help.
"I'd appreciate if you both stayed here for the entire flight. I'm an adept pilot, but still prefer to be undisturbed."
Rather, he wanted the privacy to remove his mask, and to try and eat and drink something himself as well. While he was fully capable of functioning on very little, he had not eaten in nearly two days now, nor had he had anything to drink. He probably should fix that, really.
