i love questing characters so much. characters who are chasing after one particular thing with all the strength they have and have been for so long that it’s not even really about winning anymore but about the fact that the quest has become their whole identity. characters who can’t imagine their future because it’s dominated by this one enormous unattainable goal and they know on some level it’ll never happen but they don’t even know if they want it anymore, just that chasing it is the only thing they know how to do
