Did it have to be a conscious wish? I know I didn't end up here because of one.

... Snatching, maybe? I don't know - it's just strange that they were suddenly targeted by the note sender a week after we were brought here. They'd been investigating without interruptions before us, right?
My impression is that they focused mostly on their research into the disease rather than this place itself. It's only recently we've learned that they're likely intertwined.
I do think the most likely explanation is that something woke up or arrived shortly before we did. That doesn't mean their wishes didn't wake it up and get us all drawn here, but rather than the target... I believe they just aren't able to evade it permanently. This place expanded even before they were comfortable revealing themselves.
[He'd said so to Lobelia not long before that--that it was likely they couldn't hide from what was hunting the rest of them.]
