There might be less people, but the area can still be dangerous. It was the last time I was there, although the monster that was around is gone now. [It should be, at least.] However, it doesn't mean there won't be something nasty out at the ruins and you two are most familiar with working with each other.

[So, best teamwork. Scott believes that they can handle themselves out at the ruins while helping those that may need it. Maybe even clear the area before others start arriving.]

...I know that you two will be able to handle it, while protecting others at the same time.
