As Tiya entered the graveyard area, Brando's team was entering the outer region of the Trade Wind Ring—the earlier incident regarding the disappearance of Faina and others was merely a minor episode for him—even though Tiya was among the missing, the Wild Elf sister herself was a card creature, and Brando could summon her back to his side anytime by resetting the Rubis Mercenaries card.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Brando had no intention of going back to find anyone.
However, his decision to delve deeper into the Trade Wind Ring drew strong opposition from the Erune envoy group. Count Otin almost harshly demanded him to return and search for the missing.
Indeed, if Brando were a true Eruein, he might be concerned about the significant impact of a Duke of Cruz's daughter going missing; unfortunately, Brando's thought process, influenced by two souls fused together, was affected by Sophie's modern mindset.
Who cares about the Cruz people?
