“Here we have normal, cold water. But here we have hot water. See, it’s being heated by the boiler. I mean, the copper heating tank. Also, I’ve run a line for the toilet so that it fills when you hold this tap. Then, once it’s full, you can flush it. Haha, isn’t that great? Man, I’ve been waiting for indoor plumbing for such a long time. I’ll make an auto filler system later. Oh, and this is the shower. Look, when we turn the water on, it goes up this pipe and pours out, almost like it were raining.” “Oh, it’s like taking a bath in the rain,” Ellie said, her face lighting up as she watched the water fall into the tub. “Uh, yeah. Like a rain bath. It’s called a shower. You can adjust the temperature here. The water will just run out of the drain in the bottom. Which reminds me, we need a stopper so we can still take baths. Oh, and a curtain to keep water from getting on the floor. And we need a lock for the bathroom door. Haha, the list is endless.” “This is all very nice.” “Thanks,” John said, surveying his work happily.”

“Before him was a perfect representation of what life should be for a human. Safety, shelter, warm food, warm feelings, beauty and peace. It was all there. Everything he had been struggling to find in this rotten world, at the table before him. There was even a place set for him. Yet there was something in him that hesitated. A small voice that resisted his efforts to take his seat at the table. The memories of the past ten years rushed through his mind, stronger this time, flooding him with incoherent scenes of war, of flame, of death. It was only with supreme effort that he stood amid the torrent of memories, keeping his mind clear. As the memories roared through him, the feeling of incongruity deepened.”

“No matter how many times he looked at the floating blue window hovering just outside of reach, John could not quite wrap his mind around the fact that he had been summoned to a parallel world like some web novel protagonist. It had been ten brutal years, and no matter how he cut it, this world was no fun-loving adventure. The fact that he had survived long enough to activate his current quest was nothing short of a miracle, and no matter how barren the mountains ahead of him, he was positive it was better than what he was leaving behind.”

“But at the end of the day, there are only really two groups. There are people who fear what’s outside of their control, and there are people who do not. As you grow, you must make it your objective to be the latter rather than the former. To become that person, you have to learn to trust yourself. You must trust your ability to handle suffering, you must trust your skills, and you must trust your ability to learn. In learning to trust these three parts of yourself, there will be no situation that can shake you.”
