I think so, too. That it might be a little bit of both... Because, even if you leave home to save the world, both the world and yourself are changed by it.
... It's only been recently that I've started understanding this, and it's a big reason I don't want to go home. I'm not the same... And my home probably won't be, either.
An admirable trait, oft neglected in our times. If calling me such is the correct address of your people, you may do so, but know I hold no rank or station above anyone. Least of all above a brave adventurer.
[Whatever mishmash of 'times' they exist in.]
That may be true.
I believe that such a thing could be overcome. I was nervous when I once again encountered members of the Ninth, and yet I have not found the changes between us insurmountable. Some of them have even been for the better.

I do not know if I would wish to see my own world again, even if it were a possibility. What has occasioned your new understanding, if I may ask?
no subject
You can ask. I've just been through so much in a short time that I'm not even sure my Aunt would recognize my. Sometimes, I don't recognize myself.
And the my home world has gotten more dangerous since I left the farm. We're trying t fix it, but everything's going to change if we do.
The farm I left behind won't be the same farm that I go back to, if I ever decide to go back.

Yet, if you succeed in your quest, there will be a farm and aunt to return to, will there not? Such a thing is no small consideration.
Not all alteration is for the worse, I have come to find.
no subject
I also don't want to see my Aunt's face when she doesn't recognize me anymore.
no subject
You are certain she would not?
no subject
I haven't changed much physically. I've gotten a couple of years older, but.
I'm afraid that I act different enough to make her nervous.
