[ he gives this some thought ]

I guess what I'm tryna say is, Dimitri takes on everything as his burden, both the dead and the living. I don't have half as many ghosts to account for, or at least I'm able to set them aside.

...So unfortunately, he works himself to the bone. Tries to atone for anything and everything that's ever been wrong, even if it wasn't necessarily his fault.

Maybe I'm getting a little off track, here. If you're talking about our goals, they're the same despite how we approach them. Everyone's doing their best to help rebuild Fódlan from the ground up. It's far from a fresh start, and there's a lot of political fallout to navigate along with the usual business of providing basic necessities for the people.

Yeah. No use trying to make long-term changes if you're gonna burn yourself out before you see anything realized.

Right. Some might call it a 'healthy' perspective.

[ not that. anyone in faerghus knows what emotional/mental health means. ]

Don't worry, I'm no Dimitri.
