[ Despite an... enlightening? conversation with a coworker, Sylvarie still found herself wanting more perspectives on a topic that had been increasingly nagging at her.
To ask those from different parts of Vaikuntha was one thing, but what of asking those who were from different worlds altogether? Maybe one could at least provide some sense of peace. ]
I understand everyone is still settling in to life here, trying to discover for themselves how our world works. But the truth of the matter is, those who have been recovered from the Dream Width have made their own contributions to Vaikuntha as well, with their technology, cultures and customs. molding our way of life over many generations.
With that in mind, I would like to ask what it means to be an 'adult' in your worlds, what responsibilities come with being deemed as such? Does it involve a rite of passage, or is a person merely proclaimed as such once they are of a certain age? Even here what a person may or may not do differs drastically depending on which country you are in.
... And would those adult responsibilities mean going to a chocobo festival is out of the question and childish?

[ You know, the whole looking after and respecting your elders thing. ]
A number of those who were retrieved from the Dream Width seemed surprised by my coworkers and I doing our best to guide everyone, despite some of our ages. Would that be such an example?

[He's not that old...]
It would indeed. The dedication of you and your peers is admirable and appreciated.

[ Though he is as old as her father, so older... ]
I only wish there was more we could do for you all, I can’t imagine the ache of being torn from your world. I do admire the bravery so many of you demonstrate.
