Opening this channel to share evidence.

I found an incomplete chess set made out of bone.

I'd be lying if I said that didn't have something to do with it.

I do also plan to stay here in this world and time, even if we do manage to solve the rift issue. So I really don't want to vanish out of nowhere myself, either.

But those selfish desires are far less a priority than keeping kaiju out, or rift poison harming people.

In other words, even after we solve the issue, you don't believe the job will be done. Yeah, I guess there always is an epilogue to a story.

But is this also not a selfish desire? If you came up with it, then isn't it something that you want to do?

[the_fourteenth]

If wanting to make sure I can do whatever I can to make this world safer is selfish, then I guess I am.

I had important work back home, too, but I can't return. In my wake, someone will take over my duties. Here, we're already dwindling in numbers. I'm needed here more than there.

Saving the world isn't inherently selfless. All that matters is whether or not you want to do it, above all the other options.

[the_fourteenth]

I do want to. I couldn't return home knowing how much help this world will always need, and knowing I could have done something about it.

That's good. Hold on to that mindset.
