Why the fuck are we lugging Nata around?

Why do experienced hunters and some of the foremost minds of the guild like Werner and Erik give two shits about some kid's moral dilemmas? They are the most qualified people around, even if they wanted a native's input maybe they should instead listen to a well-adjusted adult instead of a child? Why do they lug him around everywhere even after finding his people? Why am I supposed to give two shits about this kid's unreasonable attachment to a rabid animal that not only destroyed his village but is a danger to the ecosystem? Why does my character give a shit about this kid? On that note? I'd much prefer if my character didn't have any voice or opinions at all, it's kind of annoying when MY CHARACTER expresses a sentiment that goes directly against MY thoughts and opinions, such as wanting to tell a literal child that it should not accompany me to hunt dangerous monsters
