Good afternoon! I come to you today with two questions.

First, or those of you who have come from a time or world significantly different from this one, what has helped you to become accustomed to said differences?

As to the second question... What wines available on this star would you recommend? Dry, red wines are preferred, but if there are any with particularly strong flavors I humbly request you include them as well, even if you would not necessarily claim them to be the best of the batch.

My sincerest apologies if my question brought up painful memories for you.

[He noticed those pauses there.]

But it is heartening to hear that the experience seems to have been positive overall. Truly, it is the people we love who help bring light to the deepest dark.

... Indeed. Despite all my ill luck, I know I am fortunate to be here as I am because of it. For that, I can give gratitude for what the present currently holds.

[ He's not wrong about painful memories, but that is the nature of questions; they're always likely to be brushed into, even if the person asking doesn't know what he's stumbled upon. ]

As for adapting to the rest, it also helps that I have been here for a time already, to study the effects of the energy of this world and witness changes in this environment. There is something grounding in pursuing reason, even if it does not align fully with our understanding. This world has its own rules that can often defy what is known to those brought here.
