"Though it's not so complicated, really. All people live their lives being guided by something or other, and all people generally have expectations put upon them by others. For us, it's just a tad more... Nebulous sometimes."

Had he been more selfish, he would probably just have let them wait on him, but he wasn't. He had saved them, and now he would help them get to where they needed to be.
