I do love FFVIII so am happy to put more characters in. And Fury Caraway is one of those minor characters that I have a lot of thoughts on. He's not a good guy. He's a high ranking officer in a tyrannical regime, and he's a lot less torn up about it than Leo is. But on the other hand, he was very pro-active in taking action against the greater evil. Leo I feel is high diplomacy and low intrigue, wildly popular, beloved by his men, earning the respect of his enemies, but low intrigue, often bamboozled. Caraway is brusque, closed off and blunt, but he's cunning, organized an assassination attempt of the Sorceress, and managed to come out with enough pull to try to get his daughter who took part in it out of the prison. I feel like with Caraway in his camp, Leo is harder to infiltrate, more effective against the Returners, but also more encouraged to be wary of Kefka and be pro active in curtailing him. And Rinoa of course gets the Empire looking for her, and who knows what happens if they actually get their hands on her. But well, that's for griffinlw to decide, if this is canon of course.
With all the Nations running around it's easy to forget the people involved...and how dangerous those people can be if given the right actions and motivations.
On one hand having someone to help Leo out and keep an eye on Kefka is good, on the other if they get their hands on Rinoa...
That being said if they actually manage to extract her power without hurting her then...hm.
Something to follow up on when we look into the disaster.
