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.

Maybe he's all right then, and you don't have anything to worry about. Except for missing him, which is a pain in the arse.

I've heard a stiff rum helps numb up things like guilt and longing.

That's a crying shame. If you need to gully your brain cells good and proper, it's the only vice that actually does it.

Picking fights with drunks can help too if you don't mind the black eyes.

Not my style, but you knock yourself out there.
