What is even the point of becoming close to anyone here, if they can all just leave as quickly as they came?
Oh, sure, let's all play our little games and finish our silly little quests and feel this sense of camaraderie working towards a goal we all damn well know is unaccomplishable. And along the way, we can learn the magic of friendship only to have it taken away by the Rifts without any further explanation.
It would be nicer to believe we were being held to the whims of some vengeful god instead of the unfeeling randomness of the Rifts and their "unknowable" magic.
Then, at least, there would be someone to curse for the cruelty of it.

Yeah. It's weird how much I like this place now. When we first started I couldn't wait to go home. But all the people I've met so far have been really nice, on both sides. And if it ever happens to them, I'll miss them. But... I'm still glad I met them. It'd be awful having to go through all this completely alone.

Both hurt a lot...
[Hinting that she has some experience with both...]
Still... I'd rather have those connections. It's hard to describe, but... it's like leaving your plate empty because you know that food will be gone once you eat it, instead of enjoying it and letting it make feel full and nourish you.
