Some (Or Too Many?) Thoughts

It's been some time since the knight has shown his face in the Plaza to ask a question. With all of the Fallen around and comfortably filling the roles of family members, teachers and friends within the Nexus, Galahad has never found himself at a loss for listening ears and good advice. His question today is one that any of his friends would address happily, he's sure, but he doesn't know if their ears are the best ones for it.

"Do you ever wonder if your time in this place has taken you too far from the person you used to be?" Oh, that sounds worse than he means it to, doesn't it? Time for a quick backpedal. "I don't regret the man I've become, but ... I don't fit into the world I came from anymore, either. People who were once dear friends, I now relate to differently because of how I've changed."

Many of the peoples in Albion would call that kind of psychic and moral shifting corruption, but it doesn't feel that way. A great deal of good has come from the connections he's made, and he hasn't ever been made to feel as though he's had to abandon the core of what feels right, and important to him in life. The application's just... shifted? It's a strange and confusing thing to try and wrap his mind around.

"How do you reconcile yourself with a world you no longer fit into the way you once did?"

Taylor had been about to duck to her world to get a few things, but paused. The man's dressed from an era that is well before her favored pirates, but she gets what he's asking.

"The question you should be asking is, do you like who you are becoming?"
