When Herbert and Tadpole Jackson finally approach, Strange moves from the reflection in the puddle on the floor back to the plate. At Herbert's question, Strange shrugs a little.

"The Architects know that the Mirror's fae. I know at least one of them doesn't like the idea of their perfect society depending so much on an imperfect artifact—Samyaza could be the same. And on a personal note, she was one of the ones who seemed the most willing to actually talk with me once I entered the Mirror, instead of going straight to attempted torture."

That doesn't change the fact that he has no idea what the 'safety' these animals are talking about is in the first place. It also doesn't change the fact that Strange's guess is all conjecture, and shaky conjecture at that.

"But think of it this way: what choice do we have?" And he looks over to Ignatius as he says this. No matter what, they need to find someone who can heal him.
