What the man says comes as a surprise to Rey. It was very telling just how little these people knew about what they were getting themselves into when they decided to dock the ship. That this crew got dealt the same shitty card as anyone else stuck here was.
Only her eyes move when she hears William, shifting up to meet his for that brief moment.
"That's right," she agrees. "Your people have seen Strela, the Cyllene. And you think a ship messing with people's heads is crazy?"
Well, it sure as hell wasn't sane, she had to admit that. But it wasn't her fault. It wasn't any of their fault.
She blinks when William starts making a move towards them. Her free (two-fingered) hand whips out, gesturing for him to stop, her head shaking. Whatever the hell inspired William to kill the younger man, she doesn't want to take any more risks of the same thing repeating itself, or how this guy will react. There are too many unknowns to contend with right now.
Rey looks back down at the DUPRR guy. "Going to let you go. If you try to run out there on your own, you'll die -- and it's too dangerous to stay here." She pauses. "Again, am really sorry about your friend. We've lost a lot of people, too."
Unlike the soulless William, Rey has these stupid things called feelings to feel right now. Guilt is definitely one of them, for not acting fast enough, for turning her back on William despite having a really good idea what he was thinking. That one is on her.

It wasn't our fault.
