Talk:Structure of the Tower/@comment-199.212.27.190-20160223142204/@comment-26484417-20160707161237

To Tony's defence--though I cannot be sure of his circumstances--, if you spend enough time on wiki and other forums, you inevitably come across a lot of nonsense, completely illogical trains of thoughts, and the like. No matter how the average population holds up, there are always people like that sooner or later. And as your faith in humanity--namely its ability to use brain--is chipped off piece by piece, you develop a capacity to assume that even the least logical thing you could possibly imagine is actually what the author intended.

That said, the 2nd Anon is right. The original statement doesn't make sense with "can", so it was probably just a typo.

And in reaction to the original post, there are two things that you're forgetting. First, the top is a mystery to everyone--aside maybe from the Guardians--, and it's entirely possible that the top is, among other things, de facto the intended way out of the Tower. Second, Rachel most likely has no idea about Urek's wish or his failed attempts to leave the Tower; she couldn't have known before, and so far there has been no reason to brief her on this information.
