I'm an adventurer, which means spending a lot of time traveling alone and working with strangers. But because of them... I never got scared at night at the campfire, or lonely when I was walking through the plateau with nobody else in sight for miles. And because most of us serve the same nation, when I'd finally come back to the kingdom... they'd make it feel like I was coming home.
